Go with KYB on Rock Auto. They seem to ride like oem, maybe a touch stiffer before break-in.

Pros: OEM-like ride
Cons: stiffer before break-in

I bought the shocks. They're good, very happy with them. Setting 1 is basically stock, though was better controlled with what I had. Setting 8 is noticeably firmer - allows much quicker inputs. Currently have them on 3/8 all around and car is balanced - maybe about as firm as an NB RS.

Pros: better controlled, quicker inputs
Cons: not crazy comfortable
Vehicle: Mazda

Put 5100's on my 2014 to replace the blown out ranchos about 3 years back. Worth it, i reused my existing springs and they mounted without a problem. Ride is awesome and you can get them on amazon.

Pros: ride is awesome
Vehicle: Nissan

I find the 6112s ride a bit better at a slightly higher speed compared to 5100s. Taking rough gravel roads in my truck at 25-30 mph is a little rough, but it surprisingly smooths out around 40-45 mph.

Pros: smooths out around 40-45
Cons: rough at 25-30 mph

I have 6112’s on my third gen and the difference is pretty amazing. My brother has 5100s on his third gen and I would say my truck feels a lot more planted and controlled. Both are a massive difference over stock.

Pros: more planted and controlled

KYB Shock absorbers

My brother got KYB ones and they are ok.

They are on the softer side, but so far they last pretty good. 3 years and 60000km and no leaks.

Pros: last pretty good, no leaks
Cons: on the softer side
Mileage: 60000 km

I would rebuild the struts with new KYB shocks and retain the OEM springs and buy new OEM mounts. I have had terrible luck with quickstruts in a Lexus.

Cons: terrible luck
Vehicle: Lexus LS
