Go for Monroe Quickstrut.
I have never ever managed to restore - as close as possible to - the original factory ride with only shocks replacements, and I do not buy cheap ones.
I had Monroe OESpectrum for about a year in the front and, as usual, after a month or so, it was all back to like as if I never replaced them.
Been 2 weeks on Quickstrut by now - that's the ticket. Sorta start wondering about maybe doing the rear ones too.
