That's what I thought also, but when I asked PepBoys they told me that all 4 are struts.

What does Nissan's site say?

Since the rear ?????s also hold the spring I would think that makes them struts. Anyone??

I look at it as if when I pulled the Tokico's out of the box, the rears were shocks (eg look like a Monroe) and the fronts were struts.
