What strut for a stock ride? 95SE

I have a 95SE and was wondering what struts you recomend for a stock like ride. I am never going to lower it and just want it to ride the best. Thanks.

I just bought some GR2's and I don't like the ride. It is too harsh. I have my stock springs and wheels and I can feel every bump. My car handles better but the ride is more jarring. I will see if the struts get a little softer but IMO I could not recommend the GR2's if you want a stock ride. I know the struts are 15% stiffer than stock but it is a huge difference. I would recommend that if you want the ride to remain stock, then get the stock struts.

Well I really didn't want to pay stock prices. Has anybody used the Monroes?

If you are staying with stock springs, Tokico HP's are what you need for that stock feeling

Tokico HP's are what is recommended for the stock feeling ride.
I am selling some Tokico Illumina adjustable shocks.
PM me if you are interested.
Good luck.

I replaced my stock shocks with gabriel/monroe shocks that i got off ebay for $120 brand new. These are pretty good replacement shocks if you want a stock feel and dont plan on lowering your car. i would rate them an 8 out of ten compared to a factory shock. but at 1/3 the price of a tokico or a factory shock they are definetly worth it.
