Volks,
OK, My 89 Westy got new shoes (Michelin MXTs) but it still dips and rolls like a punch drunk heavy weight boxer.  To the point that my wife starts getting car sick in the back seat (our 7 year old always beats her to the front seat).  Anyway, I've already read many of the comments that have been given over the list about the Westy ride i.e. its a top heavy vehicle, you need to get use to the "bus ride", etc. etc., but with 60,000 miles and the orignal VW shocks I can't help but think I could do a little better with new ones. 
Many folks have extolled the virtues of the KYBs (they're economical), the Bilsteins (they're definitely more expensive and don't come with a warantee...why would you want to trust them?), and the Konis (the grand puba of shocks with a price to match.  The adjustability is desireable but the price is a killer).

I know that my Passat has spoiled me but the wife says I gotta do something about this and she doesn't care about the cost if it'll stop her nausea.  So, THE QUESTIONS:  
Why did you choose the shocks you bought? What's good/bad about the shocks you bought?  What shocks do you think would be the best for a "ride on rails" feel rather the "Weeble people" ride I have now?  Where could I get the best price on a set of Konis and what is the right model number (I have all this info for KYBs and Bilsteins already.)

Thanks to all!
