[QUOTE="azoufan, post: 1120528, member: 5412"] As the tires have gotten more worn they have definitely started slipping in wet weather, but I'm not out here roasting them from light to light, have a Z06 racecar for those hijinks at the track, haha. I noticed driving to the airport on the freeway that there were a few spots where the suspension and tires were definitely "bouncing" a bit, not a normal smooth ride as I remember it from when it was new. I have not experienced any of the "floating" issues that people normally talk about with the shocks needing to be rebuilt. I guess I've seen most people getting 40-50k miles so I wasn't thinking I would be in so bad of shape that they'd need to be rebuilt at 30k miles. Not unheard of I suppose. Does the bouncing feeling indicate shock rebuild time in everyone's eyes? I was wanting to get another 10k out of the tires but now I'm worried that if I try, I'll just be putting un-needed stress on the shocks after a rebuild. Thoughts? Appreciate everyone's help here.
