Are the Bilstien struts worth paying the extra? Compared to Kyb or Monroe struts? I'm looking to buy new struts just wanted to know if they are that good.

Of you want the ultimate, have the struts valved to the spring rate you have or will have installed and they will all work TOGETHER correctly.
Thanks for the input. I want to get the Bilstien struts but wanted some feedback on how they perform. Does anyone know what struts are stock on comp g 04?
^ FE4 struts
Ill get you a part number later tonight
Billsteins are better then those.
Monroe's suck
Comp g are good as well more of a sporty ride as opposed to the comport of Billsteins.
Kyb excel/GR2 are similar to comp g struts but ride a bit rougher I believe but they are priced right.
Kool. Thanks for the replies.
Comfort and heavy duty series.
FE2 = Base, GT, GTP
FE3 = Comp G
FE4 = GXP
Just finished ordering the Bilstien comfort series struts. Thanks for all the input.
For those looking to buy complete strut assemblies, steer clear of the Unity brand if you have installed the tower braces. At the site I bought mine from showed 4 1/2 stars. Well, when I was tightening the top nuts with the brace in place, 2 of the bolts stripped. The spec is 24 ft.lbs. and the torque wrench didn't even click for the 2 of them. I tightened them the same amount each time until I was getting close to the spec. I never had this issue with the OEM assemblies. The press in bolts on the top mount for the Unity brand is low grade steel. Next time, I'll check reviews at different sites before buying a product. I was in a hurry at the time. My bad.
I have kyb agx and love them it's nice having the adjustability.
