    Shocks--- Olevet- Boarder

    OK, the wifes car needs attention, Just left Big O tires

    They want 455.00 to replace 4 shocks (out the door price life time GU)
    They want 550.00 for 4 tires (out the door price)

    Tires I get, except they were not their top of the line.

    I just checked and found I can buy
    Monroes for about $210.00
    Gabriel for about $130.00

    So what say you SO. are Monroes that much better than Gabriels ??

    OH and its a 2001 Nissan Xterra SE 6 cylinder 98,000 miles

    It was the price from Big O that shocked me... 450.00 for 4 monroe Shocks that just crazy.. Hell I can buy 4 new top of the line Monroe shocks at Auto Zone for for about $130.00.....

    But I am thinking about going with Bilstein shocks. $260.00 A little high but seems to be rated as the best.

    The last set of tires I bought. I got a good deal from a place in Norman but it burnt to the ground not to long ago.

    Can you wait about 2 weeks on the tires? Some place should be reopened by then.
