vs
Strut assembly GABRIEL or Sachs
Gabriel are quality parts, I put their struts on my LS400. It isn't going to make your ride worse, it'll make your ride more controlled, with less roll, squat or dive, as it isn't worn out.
Pros: more controlled ride
Cons: null
Vehicle:
Lexus
I have the gabriel struts from auto zone and they're a bit stuff at first but I'm a year in and they've worn in great.
Pros: worn in great
Cons: a bit stuff at first
I ordered the cheapest complete kit (their request) I could find off of ebay. The struts were actually Gabriel struts and 3 years later it's still going without issue.
Pros: still going without issue
I just have to say it's odd having suspension again. I didn't realize just how gone my suspension really was. I was so used to a stiff ride that now I feel like I'm floating around on a hovercraft. Strange.
Pros: having suspension again
Cons: stiff ride before

Monroe != OEM. OEM is Sachs I believe. In actuality, Sachs OEM is probably better quality than any aftermarket manufacturer short of a full motorsports setup.
Pros: better quality than aftermarket
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Gabriel/Quick Struts are junk. Rides like shit, noisy, every time. If you were putting them on an old clapped out civic or something I’d say go for it, but definitely not on your Lexus.
Cons: rides like shit, noisy
Vehicle:
Lexus LS
