I am looking at suspension updates for my 2000 95 Aero. Is it necessary to change the springs (I have 135k miles) as well as the shocks? Would the updated bars help at the same time? I find the ride soft and body roll excessive and prefer a firmer, more compliant and controlled ride preferable. I am in central/northern NJ too.
A couple of years ago I bent five wheels on this car (two left ones in the same pot hole one time) and two front motorcycle wheels on 287 in one season. I no longer have that commute. They were all at night when the holes look like asphalt patches in the shadows. I now run 16 inch wheels and larger profile tires in the winter, and I just try to be more careful on the bike!
