Replacement Struts.

What would be the Cheapest struts of the same quality as the OEM struts my car has on it? They have 183,000 on them and only one of them has gone bad. Id like to think that i could get a set that would last at least half that long.

Sub $100.

KYB GR2's can be had from Tirerack for right around $100. Parts store cheapies will run around $70 a pair. The cheapies will probably be equivalent to the base model struts.
