I've found it quite amazing how many "good parts" Advance and Autozone can get their hands on. You have to either get your part numbers online, or talk to a manager that knows how to look the stuff up in the ordering books. They are usually cheaper, no shipping involved, and most stuff arrives at the store in 48 hours - and totally hassle free returns!

I just got Eibach Pro Kit and Bilstein shocks and struts from Autozone, paid less than the lowest price I found online, had 'em in 48 hours, and was very pleased! No internet security issues, no shipping, and no "backorders" as they can tell you on the spot where they are coming from, and when it will arrive.
