Default strut question

at morepowerracing.com they have tokico hp struts for my civics and the price for the front is 69.95 each and the rear at 67.95 each, my question is does this seem like a good price and shipping is free and does anyone have experience with that site, it comes out to be like $273 for all 4 that seems too good to me.

Yeah your right.....I'm not sure what I was thinking :a: So I guess that $273 is not that bad of a price. I also checked on one of the HAN sponcers www.prostreetonline.com but they did not have the HPs for the civic listed but I would email them and see what price they give you, since if you buy through them you get 5% off the final price and free shipping.

Those are just stock replacement struts. If you plan on putting on performance springs, those might not last too well. If all you want is an stock replacement, they would be good.
