I am looking for stronger struts for my car because my stock ones can no longer handle the increased spring rate of my ground-controls. I am looking for ones that will not need modifying whatsoever and are RELATIVELY inexpensive. However, if the only way to do it right includes spending more money that will be my route. Thanks, Jake

KYB sells inexpensive struts designed for aftermarket springs. go to tirerack and they will have so many diff tpyes ur head will spin from joy.
if ur price range is around 200 - 300 bucks u should be able to get a set of struts no problem. just tryin to be helpful here-> when u put aftermarket lowering springsa on a car u should really do aftermarket struts as well for the exact problem ur having, stock struts' longevity are decreased severely when lowered with springs and the ride quality is not very good.
fyi for the next time do struts and springs in a whole package, or if u got deep pockets get true coilovers, they come spring/strut assembled and they are matched to run with each other in pure harmony.
but yeah, go to tirerack, they sell many struts for lowered applications such as urself
theres a link for their kit from H&R, i assumed u had the sedan and not the wagon......

Thanks for the info. I did know it would severely decrease the life of my struts, but i didn't know if i want to build my suspension or kinda go back and forth. I have decided i am going with my suspension and am willing to get better struts.
