    Tein H-Techs and stock struts

    Is it neccesary to get my struts replaced if I get H-Techs? Are stock struts essentially KYB GR2's? I have about 70,000 miles on my car. If stock struts would only last 10 or 20,000 miles with H-Techs, I'd consider it a neccessity to get my struts replaced. Any help would be appreciated.

    I run H-techs on my stockers... evrything is fine so far (about 5K on them) but if you are concitering doing any kind of "fancy" driving than I would reccomend new struts also.

    I have about 1,000 miles on my H techs and with blown struts (figures lol) but it rides nicely, I'd say change them with the KYB's while you're at it so in case you do have to end up changing them later cause of wear might as well change them now. I wish I would've had the cash for struts back when me and DenverRolla did my springs so I wouldn't have to deal with installation again.
