If you can get Bilsteins for less than OEM struts..grab that quick! Bilsteins are true lifetime parts..I\"ve run sets well over 125K miles and they were just as firm as the day I installed 'em!
Owner reviews for strut assembly
At about 75000 miles, I replaced my rear struts with Bilstein HD struts. Let me tell you, 90% of my handling woes were the rear struts being dead. I haven't replaced the fronts yet.
i have a set of KYB GR-2 struts on my Subaru and there great for a basic daily driver.
I've already got the Neuspeed Upper Tie Bar, Neuspeed Rear Three Pt Tie Bar, Rear Sway Bar, Polyurethane engine mounts, Techtonics Heads and full exhaust, Bilstein struts
I used Neuspeed SofSport springs on the front with Bilstein HD struts. The drop is minor and ride quality is good for daily driving.
If these are the last struts/shocks you want to install, go with the HDs. No loss of shock performance on any of these vehicles. Bulletproof.
I went with the TC's. The car corners as flat as I want it to be at speed, and the ride is still somewhat comfortable.
I've dealt with Koni before and, while cumbersome, they backed their stuff up and sent me 2 new front struts after the seals popped.
Seriously, if you value your life you will NOT buy these. Bought a pair for the front and while I was going at a low speed the weld on the bottom of the strut completely gave.....WTF!?! Spend the extra money and get the japanese, german or anything other than this Chinese crap
I ended up buying new bilstein struts and Vogtland springs off some guy who said they were for my FWD, but they're clearly for the AWD. And now he's not returning my messages...
