I did for a year and a half before installing Stipe shocks... My car now rides and handles amazingly better. In fact it rides better smoother than my Wife's KIA which is only about 300 lbs more in weight than my 31' Tudor with about the same wheel base --yes the larger diameter tires helps on the Tudor.

For safety, I would recommend anyone who drives with roads with potholes to install shocks --hit a bump and your car will handle it, not go off on a tangent...
