New struts...HELP
Hello everyone
I have a 03 GT convertible. Both front struts are done! I am looking to replace both struts. My question is what does anyone suggest in new struts. I use the car as a cruiser with my wife and daughter and work occasionally. Looking for a good strut that will ride good. Looks like I am going to get the 18x9 chrome bullits this year and want to do this right. With the new wheels in near future not sure if I will want to drop her a bit. See fox struts as well on lowered new edges as they are shorter work good? Any suggestions for stock height would be appreciated. KYB AGX Adjustables?
Already thanks to anyone who can help.

Koni states they have a lifetime warranty. That does not make them any better than the next guy IMO. You can get some decent daily driver struts from autozone or sears. My front Koni struts are shot after 6 years or so.
With autozone life time warranty you take your bad strut off and take it to your local autozone for a replacement. With Koni you either pay half price for the struts and they send you replacements. Then you send the bad units to koni on your dime....... or take your struts off send them in and wait for the replacement to come.
