#16429, "What struts to go with?"


          

Well since I went lowered on my stock struts, they blew...hahaha big surprise. So now I gotta decide what I want to get...

Lowered on H&R springs right now so I need something that:

1. Will last awhile (more than a year for sure! the longer the better - like 5 years or longer!)

2. Gives good ride on a lowered car.

3. Something that won't break the bank - not the least expensive...but a good strut for cheaper.

I don't need some crazy adjustable strut so thats not a big deal.

Any ideas what strut I should go with?

Thanks,
Mike.

I got the Tokico HP struts off of ebay for 270 to my house. I think they are great. Not bouncey, and I've heard lots of bad things about the gr2's.

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.
