These are great!I put about 1,000 miles on them so far. Roads that used be stressful to drive because my car would pogo stick after bumps are now a a joy to drive. The car is much better with these installed - steering and braking response is crisp and responsive - I don't have to wait for the car to settle down after hitting bumps.Rear struts were a lot easier to install for me (97 legacy L wagon), because the front springs were too short to fit the spring compressors in easily.FINAL UPDATE 8/26/17. Still love these struts, after 42K miles.

I was sent an older model of the wrong part. It should have been a left side, it was a right side. It is also not the 'excel-g' model. it is labeled 'gr-2' and appears to be 15 years old.

I recently put new Michelin Pilot Sport A/S+ tires on my car. They gave me plenty of grip, but that's it. It was like having a 90 year old man wearing brand new Air Jordan's with his blown out knees and rickety old hips. After I installed the KYB GR-2 strut's, my car is like...Wow! What an improvment. My car is so much more responsive. It's actually fun to drive. I never realized how bad my old ones were since the deterioration was so gradual. The old ones weren't leaking or anything obvious, they were(I thought)just old. After removal, I was able to easily move the piston back and forth on the old struts with my thumb and index finger.
