Strut assembly KYB or KONI
I’ve had good results with kyb.
I just ordered the kyb loaded strut assembly and put them on all 4 sides last week and they feel great
Installed the rear leafs, beam, new KYB struts, the mk3 GTI stub axles, now just waiting on new bearings, rotors, pads, and calipers for both sides.
I replaced mine with KYBs all around last year. Rides excellent and doesn't feel stiff. Reused the springs.
I prefer KYB but I have used Gabriel and Monroe with good results. The KYB’s had a noticeably better ride than the other choices.
Red is a great upgrade if you're keeping the factory ride height, they ride MUCH better than the factory Bilsteins.
I’ve had good luck with KYB.
When I replaced the struts on my C30 I went with KYB and so far they're performing great
210 dollars profit on the kyb struts.
Although KYB makes good quality OEM struts as well as good quality bare strut *cartridges*, their preassembled Strut-Plus aftermarket line use lower quality components and aren't very good... Specifically the top strut bearings are problematic on their Strut-Plus preassembled struts,I really wouldn't recommend them.
