LennyB57 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Looking to replace rear struts, the originals are still being used, I'm looking to upgrade, stock ones in my area run 165 each. What recommendations are their out there for less that 200.00$ each? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're ~ $105 each. I have them on my impreza and I love them. They're probably the best you're going to get for an "upgrade" without doing coil-overs. You can adjust them up (stiffer) or down (softer) based on drivers desire and road conditions. They're fairly easy to adjust. I've had them in my impreza for a year now and they still adjust with ease and ride great (I like the stiffer ride they can provide) If you want to just replace them, just get the "stock" KYB also listed on that first link. In which case, only ~ $60 each. I would never put a non KYB strut on any of my subaru's unless I absolutely had to. And I know for a fact a lot of other members would agree (minus the old school stuff that you can't get KYB's for... front end of my brat ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LennyB57 Posted November 20, 2016 Author Share Posted November 20, 2016 Dis you use the original springs? or did you upgrade those also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golucky66 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I just used the original springs. At least in my impreza, if i upgraded the spring it would be to stiff. Even with the dampaning all the way down the car didn't weight enough to compress a stiffer springs. So unless you're looking to rally your car, just use the stock springs.
