Default Shocks & Struts

What's up guys? Like the thread says, I'm looking to get new shocks & struts for my 01GT. The stockers are closing into being 10 yrs old and my suspension it just terrible & noisy. I would really appreciate your help in choosing the right ones for all around daily driving. Thanks Again Guys!

for street driving, I suggest Bilstein HD's. Some people go with tokicos HP's but with suspension parts I am 10000000000000000% convinced that you get what you pay for. You can get them on MM's website. They are more expensive than your typical shocks and struts but they are awesome for DD and they will definitely improve your handling as well.

I have tokico hp blues with my H&R SS springs and they are junk. Wish I would have spent the extra coin for the Bilstein HD's. My .02
