No, they are definately shocks. We have a multipoint suspension where the shocks are not a part of the suspension geometry. That means that they are shocks. Struts form part of the suspension geometry. If the fronts were struts, then we would be able to adjust camber by slotting the strut tower and moving the top mounting point of the shock. We can't, so, therefore, they are shocks. The suspension goes through it's nominal travel without the shocks.
