Hi All, So, I just bought a new set of tires from Bus Depot. They are the Hankook 185r14 set. Cracked my bumper backing up to the "loading dock" :-( The van drives incredibly now!!! It's such a huge difference... but now when I'm driving over bumps and what not I feel like I'm back in college (or worse yet passing my parent's bedroom) and hearing a squeak, squeak, squeak when going over uneven surfaces. So, how do others determine it's time for new shocks? Do you push down on the bumpers and figure out how much (and how quickly) the van comes back up? Or is there a scientific method to computing this? Cheers, Harry
