I bought these to replace the stock struts on my '97 GT. The old ones had 150,000+ miles on them and the difference after install was night and day. It's like driving a new car again! The old struts were very worn. I've used the KYB GR2 on my grand am with eibach springs as well for about 20k and they've held up great! They aren't stiffer than stock, but they are made with quality parts and are nitrogen gas charged, so they last longer and give more consistent dampening than stock. I highly recommend them.

I feel like I'm driving a car that is actually made to go fast and perform well. I coupled these struts with Eibach Lowering Springs for a 1.2 to 1.3" drop. Wonderful effect! I'd definitely get these over anything else if you like performance. The cool thing is, the ride is still comfortable as well! I have a 1999 Grand Am SE 3.4L V6 with 172,000 miles, and had these put on at about 167,000. Still run great :)
