KYB is a very good brand. I doubt there are any brands that are known for taking an absolute beating...

Struts, i.e. dampers, shocks was what he was talking about, not strut braces.

Go Koni if you've money. They'll go the test of time when compared to Tokico's or KYB's. Koni's have a lifetime warranty granted your springs don't drop the ride too damn far but that's to be said of all the other strut makers. Personally, I'd say if you're gonna do struts, do it right the first time and get the Koni's. Few local guys didn't take my advice the first time round and their AGX's blew, now they're jumping on Koni's.
