street shocks - off topic

[sam_i]

This is off topic as it is not off-road related. But i would like to get your feed back on this - you guys have done it all:

Need to replace the struts on the wifes Honda accord (this is strictly a to and back from work vehicle).
Has anyone used Gabriel (Gas Ryder) shocks on their cars? Are these any good? I can get all for for $156 at AutoZone (cheap!) and they come with a lifetime a lifetime warranty. How long can i expect them to last before replacing again.

If people have had bad experiences with these, i guess then i will be going with Monroes for $230 (all round) from NAPA.

thanks

In my experience, there is nothing wrong with the Gabriel Gas Ryders, if the car is being used for work trips etc. They should last for at least 8000-12000 miles. The nice thing is that they have a lifetime warrenty, so when they blow, you take them back for new ones, just read the conditions.
