Price was right, OK shocks
The price was right on these with the online discount and they are a bit better than the originals i replaced, but they didn't lift the rear at all like the Monroe's i put on the front. Considering the ones i replaced were totally dead, I expected a lot more difference in ride quality. My car is STILL bottoming out over speed bumps and I thought that the new kyb struts would stop that but they didn't.
They are OK, but I almost wish I had gone with the Monroe's.

Great Strut at a Great Price
I installed this strut beginning of August 2014. I have driven about 9000 miles since then and this strut is still functioning like new.
Installation went well with no issues, I own spring compressors so i did not have to rent them.

Works Well, Right Side Only
These are side dependent due to the brake line mount and wheel sensor wire mount, and this is the right side strut. The distance from the spring seat to the top of the piston rod measured 1" shorter than my stock 2005 Subaru Outback XT Limited struts. They still work, but the springs required a bit more compression to get the piston rod nut on.
Bottom Line:
Great price!
Decent Quality
Might buy again

If your Pep Boys tire becomes unusable due to a road hazard related mishap and cannot be repaired, we will, subject to pro-rated adjustment based upon the remaining usable tread on the tire, replace the unusable tire or give you a refund. While Pep Boys will remount the tire for free, there will be a cost for re-balancing the replacement tire.
Coverage extends to such damage as unrepairable tread punctures damage from potholes, nails, glass and jagged metal which cause cuts, snags, punctures, impact breaks, bruises and rim cuts.
Length Of Coverage
Coverage with Road Hazard Warranty extends for the full period of the mileage of the tire. This coverage is not transferable to a new owner, or if the owner mounts the tires on another vehicle.

SERVICE DESCRIPTION
Safety Rating is a combination of two values: Load Index and Speed Rating for P-Metric and Euro Metric tire sizes; and Load Range and Speed Rating in the case of heavy duty LT (light truck) sizes.
Speed Rating is based on the speed that the tire is designed to be driven at for extended periods of time. All tires in the in the U.S. are designed to maintain legal U.S. speed limits. The speed rating of tires must match the maximum driving speed of the vehicle.
Load Index is used on P metric and Euro Metric sized tires and denotes a tire's load-carrying capacity at a specified inflation pressure. The load index is represented by a number, the higher the Load Index Value the greater the load the tire can safely carry. Vehicle manufacturers recommend a maximum load capacity based on a recommended minimum load index.
