I need new struts - what to get

[Anonymous]

I will be getting either TTE or Eibach springs. I need new struts, so what struts? stock? TRD sportivo struts? Koni?
I want a good ride like stock, so nothing rock hard like TEIN coilovers for me.

Since the TTE is designed for stock struts, that might be a good choice with them (unless they cost the same as Koni  s:lol: :lol: s:lol: ). And Eibach is the same...

If you decide to get the Sportivo struts, I think you should also get the Sportivo springs to match that. (and the whole set while you're at it) IIRC, the ride is a bit harder than stock...but I think it's actually the best balance between handling and comfort you can get. Any harder and it's just too hard for local roads  s:? :? s:?

Some have said to me that the stock struts are not good quality, that they do not last long.
I want near stock ride, and I like what I read here about the TTE springs, lower, about the same ride as stock & less sway in the corners.  That is why I was thinking TTE & Sportivo struts. Sportivo springs might be too stiff for me, yet not firm enough in the corners. I have 17" wheels and tires with 40mm offset, so I'm hoping the progressive springs will cut down on the sway so it does not rub while lowered
