KYBs are stock. Your mounts even say KYB on them. But since your car is 13 years old, a replacement is a big upgrade.
If you're asking about struts in conjunction with springs, racey suspension gives you a stiffer ride. It keeps your tires on the ground when changing speed (accellerating, cornering, etc.). Better springs and struts will let you throw your car around more - depending on your tires. If you're asking about the benefits of struts compared to springs, I'm not sure. They work in parallel and it's a mechanical engineering question to ask which is more effective at maintaining stiffness, damping, etc. But since they're both cheap and both in the same place, it's a good idea to do both at the same time. However your stock springs will last a long time. Your struts are probably shot by now. -------------------- ![]() |
