[s-cars] what shocks?

[LL - NY]

This sounds like an underdamped system. Bilsteins should be a decent match.
If you're uncertain, you may find Koni Adjustables worth working with. Both
have lifetime guarantees, although generally speaking, Bilstein are better
built. And the reality, the "adjustability" of Koni's was more intended to
compensate for wear, not adjust damping rates, even though that's what
everyone uses the adjusters for anyway.
