What Are Shocks?
Car shocks, or shock absorbers, are integral components of a vehicle's suspension system. They assist in managing the impact and rebound movement of your car’s springs and suspension, ensuring that the tires keep in contact with the road. Shocks influence the car's stability during acceleration, turning, and braking, providing you with control and a comfortable ride by minimizing bumps and vibrations.
