Monroe quick struts are what I used. Already assembled and took no time to replace.
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.
I also replaced the front and rear struts. Man, what a difference that made in the ride and handling department.
sachs struts with the OEM rubber bushing not Poly is honestly the best feel.
Monroe Quick Struts all the way man. I sell them daily at work, 99.99% of the time no one has any problems with them. They are the #1 selling aftermarket complete strut assemblies on the market.
Spend for the KYBs. Second choice, Motorcraft. Monroes have disappointed me lately.
Monroe oe-spectrum are decent. The el-cheapo monroe-matics are just that.
Id stay away from the monroe struts. I originally replaced my blown struts years ago with the monroe's since they were already built. Honestly hated them, made it just under 2 years and swapped them out for the b4's on all 4 corners (rear shocks needed replacing anyways). The monroe struts also had very little rebound left when i pulled them off.
I’ve had enough bad experiences with Monroe that I won’t use them on any vehicle.
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.
