Shocks & Struts
I've got a 2004 Pilot with 30k miles. Just replaced the lack of Integrity's with Michellin CTs, and suspect I'll need the front rotors turned and pads replaced within the next 5k miles.
What about shocks and struts? I've not seen any threads on this topic. Does anyone know if any aftermarket products are better than OEM? Peace out |

I was actually wondering the same thing... I've hit 36k miles on my '03 EX and recently installed the CTs. I've had pretty good results with Bilstein, Koni, and Tokico but wasn't sure of the "best" setup for a stock Pilot?
Thanks! Roger

I recommend against turning the rotors. They've already shown a tendency to warp, and removing matierial is only going to make it worse. You'll have better results with new rotors.

The thing is new rotors aren't seasoned with heat cycles, and can warp just as easy. Rotors are warping for several reasons, not just too much heat.

I've been watching this thread hoping to find some shocks for my Pilot, but the options are slim. Not much of a choice for these cars.
Anyone know of a site with a good choice? Can't find any springs, either.
