I drove one for a long time. Easy and cheap to repair, and there was a huge (now dwindling) aftermarket. Yup, Koni adjuatable struts in a ~2500lb econo-box made those handle better than they had any right to.
Owner reviews for strut assembly
I had an slc with bilstein struts and h&r sport springs. Felt really nice and solid without being too harsh.
I am running Str.t with my Pro Kit. Been on them now for about 3 weeks and love the car! Handles very well and it is not harsh.
After several months I'm very happy with the ride. Smooth yet still a sporty ride (handles the curves) and the car actually lowered itself a bit more once everything settled. 100% recommend.
The struts were pretty worn with the rod having much less resistance to movement (both extension and compression than the new replacement bilsteins.
Yeah, I just installed some with H&R sport springs. The ride is certainly an improvement over stock. It's only been a few days but I am liking these koni.
I just got them for my Buick. I would say that they function just as well as stock and the car rides great. They are a TAD rougher than OE, if I turn the radio off they make a bit of strut noise over bumps.
Bought one in 2011 when it had 50k miles, right now it has 132k miles. Never had a major problem aside from the MAF, original clutch works well enough but the struts are shot and clunking.
I have Eibach pro kit on stock Alltrack Shocks/Struts. It was actually pretty nice when I first got everything installed, but after a year of driving on it.....the front Struts are worn out I believe. The car bounces badly now
I would use only KYB, Gabriel, and Sachs struts. I've tried the cheap no name Chinese ones and all you'll get are alignment issues and worn out parts in a year or less.
