5 months ago when i lowered the celica i used the tanabe springs which have turned out to be great, i put new kybs in the back but left the original struts in the front. today the rear struts are already knockin, while the oem are still holdin strong with a 2.2 drop. Has anyone though or noticed that the toyota struts are more durable then kybs? or is it just luck.

Had my stock Toyota Struts on my old celi for 3 years on Intrax springs, changed springs to Tein, left the stock struts. They are still holding strong and no problems with them AT ALL..
