I have the KYB with Eibach springs on my GS400. The ride is smooth & controlled
Buy KYB Struts Plus because they are identical to the OEM in replicating the ride and feel.
KYB Quick struts. I have installed them on many cars without complaint. EZ driveway repair and no spring compressor needed.
Monroe quick struts are what I used. Already assembled and took no time to replace.
I recently installed KYB struts front/rear on my 2014 (108k miles). Seems to be the best brand for quality & price, plus it’s likely your OEM struts are KYB.
It took me only 3 hours to replace and assembly all the parts back to my Prius. Really enjoys on the performance because my old struts almost did not work at all and it's shocking a lot when driving through a tough road. I've also do some research and Monroe should be better for a American car rather than a Japan one like Prius, and KYB perform smooth and better in case of specific Prius and Toyota cars.
KYB is way better than Monroe.
Monroe oe-spectrum are decent. The el-cheapo monroe-matics are just that.
If you live in a cold climate which has temperatures below freezing I would recommend staying away from Monroe if possible. They tend to become very sluggish when cold which makes for a very harsh ride.
Monroe struts tend to be of mediocre quality. For standard driving they're ok, but they don't really tolerate lowering springs well.
