I am definitely thinking its time for front struts. My car bounces forever with every tiny ripple in the road and they speaking and grinding like you wouldn't believe. Are KYB'* a good choice and I guess I should just go ahead and do the rears as well??

KYB sounds great for the front, but what type of suspension do you have in the rear? Do you have ELC? Or electronic? I'm betting ELC (playing the odds here). In that case, Monroe makes a replacement air strut for it.

Yep, my car has the rear air suspension. So, KYB'* up front and Monroe in the back. Got it, thanks!
