Default Honda Accord EX V6 automatic transmission - Gabriel struts vs Belstein

Hi Everyone,

Need input on rear strut replacement. Don't know the difference between Gabriel Ultra struts and Bilstein Struts. Which should I buy for the kind of driving I do? I only drive from home and work, but will need the struts to work in winter conditions. Which is worth my money, long term? I don't wanna buy struts that will give me problems where I have to replace them again. I want something that will last me for a while, at least more than 50,000+ miles. Or, if you know of a better quality, let me know.

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks,

Rainbow9

Sensa Trac quick struts from Napa are good.

Bilstein shocks are the shiz-nit, they offer consistent control with plushness.
Gabriels are nice but a bit on the soft side.
Kill Your Back shocks are too damn stiff.
Monroes wear out and don't maintain a consistent ride even when new.

Bilsteins are awesome. Gabriel/Monroe are just standard replacements.

both will work fine.
