What to replace with new struts?

If you found so with springs, I'd defientely consider it even if they're more money.

Since you don't have a spring compressor, you're going to either be into paying a shop for R&I of the springs, borrowing/renting the tool anyways so you'll be into a few more bucks regardless.

But obviously it depends, if they're another $300 then you can easily get the springs swapped cheaper. But if you buy them assembled already, it'll take longer to jack the car up then it will to swap all 4. Just food for thought....
