Owner reviews for strut assembly

If you want to keep the stock ride height, you can probably save the stock springs and run Koni Yellow struts and shocks for a slightly sportier ride.

Overall, great quality parts. Fully recommend.

Installed Bilstein B4 Struts and Shocks all around @ 80-85k miles. The car feels very planted. I drive 90-100MPH (140-160kph) daily for up to an hour, and I can tell you that it does not feel like it crashes into potholes or bumps like people say. The rebound on the struts are a tad far but that’s at high speeds and takes a quite a launch for it to rebound as far as I’m saying.

I put a set of KYB on my 2007 nearly a year and 11,000 miles ago, no complaints so far. They feel comfortable enough to me.

Something else to consider are Koni Reds. I coupled them with Neuspeed Sport springs. The struts are variable response so they absorb the small bumps, like the expansion joints on freeways, but stay stiff for corners.

I had one fail inside the warranty period and Koni made it an easy exchange. No other issues.

New struts are on the way for my 225k 2006 Prius.

Around it for a little over 5 months and it's got to be easily one of the favorite cars I've ever owned.

Super simple to work on and so reliable I love this thing!

Only other issue I can think of is that the coolant control valve is making the noises of it being on its way out. No code yet but I'm just waiting.

My Hyundai has been solid, just maintenance. My front struts failed but my dealership replaced them under warranty.

Spend for the KYBs. Second choice, Motorcraft. Monroes have disappointed me lately.

Ive read that the rough country struts are bad quality.

I put Monroe’s on my Outback. After a year the front passenger side went bad.
