alright i changed my struts and no more banging in the front on every bump. i was worried that the wheels were going to fall off. the struts i got tend to feel a little more like the firm ride switch is on, like they are really stiff. does anyone know if these will soften a little or is this going to be my ride quality? dont get me wrong i love the stability, but a little on the bumpy side.

What brand? Generally they will soften up a little.

Most struts tend to soften slightly with a few miles on them. When I put a new set of Monroe's on the 'Scort-LX/GT...I was shocked at how firm the ride was. A few thousand miles later, it rides the way it should IMHO.

I just put in the Monroe sensa-trak struts and I thought they would be stiffer, but then again, I haven't put in the rears yet. Still bouncy bouncy. lol.
