I run eibach sportline on my car with stock strut, about 2 years now! No problem up to now.. and i live Canada with VERY VERY bad road!

Is alot stiffer for sure! You feel every bump,crack on the road! For me is OK, some my friends dont like because to stiff for her taste.. if you want “comfort ride" take pro-kit or good set of coilovers loll. And this is not my daily, maybe for that my stock strut are still good loll. Sorry for the bad english

@stevemp5 (it won't let me quote you)
Do you drive it in the winter? I find my RSRs with the stock struts are brutal when it is minus 20 or so.

Ohhh... Votre anglais est bien. Je souhaite la moitié des gens ici ont écrit aussi bien que vous le faites.

Ugh, this happened to me too, the one time I rolled her out in an inch of snow. Slid in to a high curb and it popped my side marker, and then scraped the bottom of the bumper to the plastic. So frustrated. Now I have to find a lip kit to cover it up.

I just thank Toyota every day for providing a great car at a price that allows me to drive it and not freak out when something happens.
