Sad day for an original owner here, but I have to put reg oem ride quality suspension back on. My girl needs a car to drive and can't do coilovers or springs.
1) Are the Monroe's on rock auto any good and do they provide stock ride height? I don't want it sitting higher then oem.
2) Any other "oem replacement" brand you guys recommend? Biggest concern is quality of ride
3) I have tein coils, but we are old lol and she can't take the bouncy/harsh ride even set at almost full height and w edfc set soft.
4) I also have adjustable tokico illuminas w H&R springs and those are too harsh/hard for her too. But to be fair they are much harsher then the tein coils. Is it the illuminas or the springs? Do you guys think putting oem springs would give oem feel?or just change whole tower?
5) again main goal is oem ride quality for her bougie *** self! Lol

OEM coils with KYB struts is the way to go. You can get all the parts (struts, bellow and mounts, all four corners) for about $350.- from Rockauto. The ride quality is just like OEM, IMHO. I am very happy with the set-up.
I haven't heard too many good things about Quick Strut sets, from Monroe or other (but nothing outright bad either - just a bit soft, and reliability unknown).
