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.

Sorry to bring back an old post but is it true since toyota struts are made by tokico so does this mean KYB's are not even all that compared to Genuine Toyota Struts? Should I just get OEM struts.
