as far as KYB struts go I can say the build quality is excellent. The shop I work at distributes parts to auto shops in the area, and while we have a ton of options the KYB’s sell like crazy. I asked some of the techs about them and they’ve only said great things.
I have KYB struts on my '06 OB. They're firm, but not uncomfortable.
About 8 years ago I replaced the OEM struts on my Nissan Altima with KYB. They were still pretty tight (with no apparent leaks) when I got rid of the car about 5 years and 85,000 miles later. Granted, that mileage was probably 90% commuting on SoCal highways.
KYB Struts are a goos choice but it wount be that cheap, altho its really worth it.
Just bought some KYB quick struts from Rock Auto and they are spectacular. Insanely easy install as well.
I used KYB. They are the OEM supplier now since Tokico is not around. I bought mine through Rockauto. They frequently have rebates. I didn't buy the complete strut assemblies. I just bought the struts and purchased OEM springs seats, bearings, bellows etc.
Went with KYB struts, they got several good reviews compared to OEM
I've used these before on several cars. They ride just fine but don't last all that long.
Monroe is crap quality.
I've had so many monroes and gabriels shit the bed i cant recommend them to anyone anymore.
