Best OEM replacement struts to buy?
I own a 93 Accord SE with 93,000 miles and am looking for feedback on the best replacement struts to buy? KYB GR-2? Tokico (blue)?

You can get a set of GR-2's for about $180. That's what I have right now, and they have worked fine for the past year that I've had my pro-kits on.

well ive put about 6000 miles on my gabriels (the OE replacement from autozone) and they have been doing just fine so if you want a cheaper alternative, i think you should be fine with these

Uh, $290 is not cheaper then $180.
I had GR-2s on mine before I went to AGX. I got them for $160 and I liked them...I mean as far as OEM replacements go

Are the KYB GR-2's the same or slightly stiffer than stock struts?
I bought GR-2's for my 90 Nissan 2WD Truck and tyhey sucked! The compression was very soft; just like a worn out shock. I replaced them with Garbiel Gas which were stiffer.
I just scared that GR-2's will be too soft for my Accord. I'm keeping it stock, but would like s slightly stiffer ride for better handling.
