I need new struts and am obviously limited to my selection. I am leaning towards KYB Gr2's right now. Not doing any auto cross or track driving, street only. Just want an opinion on what will work good and last for a while. Right now I have Monroe Sensa-Trac struts that are shot. Thanks for your opinions.
Koni's are not really an option right now, too spendy and limited availability.

I put the KYB's all the way around on my '91 spirit. I have had no problem with them. I feel that they are a little soft on cornering, but good for everyday driving.

Found a deal on e-bay that I couldn't pass up, even though I already had pretty new GR2's
on the back that came on the car.
