strut replacement

At last, I found someone to install my comptech springs at a decent price, so I'm thinking to replace the struts at the same time. Are these pretty good struts? If not, what have some of you replaced the stock set with?

Thanks!

I just got the illuminas (adjustable) and they are pretty good... not too hard and not too soft.. (but hey they are adjustable afterall)

I had to get my Comptechs replaced (silver ones ) so since dealer was going to do it under warranty I said hey I've saving labour and might as well do the shocks. GLAD I DID !!!

BTW: got the H&R 50103 instead of the Comptech due to the change in the drop spec.

I got a set of illuminas for Christmas so I can't wait to get them on! What do you have yours set to? I was told the front should be one less than the back...so should I start with 4 in the rear and 3 up front?

3up front and 4 in the rear sound right. You got my vote.
