American and European shocks are the best.
I'm sorry, but preferring something or discounting something else based on country of origin is the silliest thing you can do.

IMO tires are worth way more than 5%. a car with crappy all seasons will be miles slower than the same car with proper performance summer or race tires no matter who the driver is. A better driver will have less of a gap in times but when winning means 10ths of a second, whole seconds because of crap tires will put you way down in the order. That being said though I think its best to learn on whatever tires you have because you will learn faster with the tires amplifying your mistakes and not compensating for them.
I'd say its more like 80% driver, 15% tires, 5% car. First thing we always tell newbies locally is if you are going to put money into anything other than your own driving, get tires before doing anything else.
