Which rear shocks are the best to use on a mostly driven street car with occassional trips to the track? My stockers are well over due:) Are the ones that Ramchargers sell good? What's the difference between 90/10 and 70/30 and 50/50?
 
For a car that's mostly street-driven a Bilstein shock is the best choice. They are firm but not harsh and last a long time (Bilstein quotes 98% efficiency after 100K miles). You can buy 'em from Autozone or shox.com for about $55 each.
The ratio is 50/50 so they'll work fine in a dual purpose car.
 
90/10 & 70/30 shocks are for the front of a drag car,along with other mods like removing the front sway bar...it allows the front end to rise quickly & settle slowly, transfering weight to the rear tires...not the hot ticket for a street car especially a daily driver imo...
 
Just recently put the KYBs on mine, all the way around. Huge difference for me and I am very satisfied. The car feels much more stable, if a little bit more stiff on the bumps.
