The front I also got KYB struts. No issues with fitment but I needed to rent an extra set of spring compressors as the front coils were thicker more difficult to compress.
I went with KYB rear struts for my 07 Touring earlier this year and the rear feels tighter and more stable over bumps.
My 2005 got monroe quick struts at all four corners two months ago. Just drove it 10 hours to Asheville NC and back, while full of chainsaws and tree climbing gear.
Drives great while winding theough mountain hairpins and rolling down insterstate at 80mph.
New struts are on the way for my 225k 2006 Prius.
Around it for a little over 5 months and it's got to be easily one of the favorite cars I've ever owned.
Super simple to work on and so reliable I love this thing!
Only other issue I can think of is that the coolant control valve is making the noises of it being on its way out. No code yet but I'm just waiting.
My 2008 just rolled to 194k and has the original battery as far as I know. I've put 42k miles on it and have only changed fluids and filters. I did replace all 4 struts but half the reason was I installed a lift kit, other half was some consistent funny wear on a rear tire. Replaced an axle since I damaged the threads. Replaced the sway bar links because they were seized to the struts. It's been a great little unit.
I did Gabriel struts/shocks on both gen3 prii. Would recommend.
Fair price for paying a shop to replace your OE struts with Monroe OESpectrum quickstruts.
It took me only 3 hours to replace and assembly all the parts back to my Prius. Really enjoys on the performance because my old struts almost did not work at all and it's shocking a lot when driving through a tough road. I've also do some research and Monroe should be better for a American car rather than a Japan one like Prius, and KYB perform smooth and better in case of specific Prius and Toyota cars.
210 dollars profit on the kyb struts.
