A questions about replacing shocks/struts.
Background: At about 80,000 miles I noticed the rear tires were cupping. I replaced the rear shocks and much later got the Jetta's third set of tires.
I installed the OEM style from idparts, nothing like Koni or Bilstien.
Now at 162,000 miles I see the tires just starting to cup. I think the rear of the car has been bouncy for a while, I should have noticed.
The question is at 162,000 miles should I just replace struts and shocks or just replace the rears again?
Also not matter what I am considering better quality now...Koni (Reds?) or Bilstiens?
Any thoughts?
