Default struts

I am getting ready to replace my struts and I was wondering what is some good quality/ low priced struts (if that is possible). I am not interested in any racing parts, just something to replace mine which are leaking. I may also look in to buying used stock parts. I am trying to get out of this as cheap as possible, but I don't want to put shiot parts on my car. I also saw drop zone struts on ebay, and I was wanting to get an opinion on those. Thanks

I have Kyb GR-2 shocks and they are great. My car is also lowered 1.8 inches (eibach sportlines). It rides about the same as a g35. A little stiff with no bouncing at all.
