How many miles do you have? If you have more than 60k miles on stock struts/shocks, then it's probably dying anyway. Get KYB GR-2. Cheap and good.

Agx's are awesome. Only reason I got Tokicos , is because I got them free. They are beter than Gr2's which to me feel more like stock replacements, in MY OPINION ....

If I would have had to pay for my Tokicos, I would have just saved up a little extra for the Agx's....its completely worth it !
