for sure...it handles amazing now...zero bodyroll, tight cornering made EASY!
looks great...although I must say that I also changed the struts and got the sensa tracs by Monroe, cuz the factory ones died...i'd say lower it first and then make out if you want to change the struts or not.

KYB has strut mounts and all sorts of extras that'll jack your price up if you don't use the stock ones. You can get a set of four stock replacement ones for 125 or something.
