shocks and strutts

My 04 sedan just turned 100K miles. I would like to change my rear shocks and front struts. As I travel for a living, ride quaility is a priortiy over handeling allthough , I would like less body roll in the corners. Any suggestions on a good shock and strutt for my ride?

It really depends on how much you are willing to spend and how much quality you are willing to give up. There are plenty of great adjustable shocks out there but I don't know personally if even on full soft they will compare to the comfort of oem sedan struts.

Go with the Tokico D-specs (~$525) and you can set the dampening exactly how you want it. On the sedan you can change the settings in under 10 minutes, so you could even soften it up for long trips. The adjustment ranges from way-to-stiff (for the street) to softer than OEM. With 100k miles, your dampeners are so worn, that there would be a big improvement just getting new OEM units or Tokico HPs (non adjustable). BTW: Tokico also makes our OEM units. I replaced my OEM units with D-specs at 50k.
