Oh My Struts

I started to upgrade my suspension starting with coil springs, shocks and struts I brought blistens for the back....Only to run into a brick wall when I heard what the price of the Blistens would be for the front. AutoZone wants 330 PER strut...now I remember a while ago they were 179 what happened? Or is this strut really that good?

I wanted to know what other strut would be just as good of are these back I'm having a hard time thinking about spending 660 for two struts?

You can get the KONI Yellows for 226 per. They are adjustable. Good product, probably better than Bilstein for sporty driving.

If you can I'd return those shocks to autozone. Shox.com has the Bilstein HD's for $643 and the Koni Sports for $700. Hotpart.com has the Koni's for $663.60 with free shipping.

Re: Oh My Struts

OMG! I didn't believe you and went to check - YOU'RE RIGHT!!

1 year ago I put Bilsteins all around, ordered from autozone, and the fronts and rears, along with the Eibach springs didn't cost me $680!

Some German got awful proud all of a sudden!
