Eek! If you like "sporty" handling like I think you do, DONT use the Monroe struts. I installed them on a Saab, and it lost the "sportiness" it had even with 17-year old shocks. It actually MADE it ride more like our Buick that we had too. Great riding car, but handled like a pig around corners...I even squealed tires in that car going around turns at 20 mph a couple times.
