Default Question on struts

I have a white 1999 Gs 400 with 125k miles on it. What is a good price and brand name for ajustable struts. or should replace my struts with factory struts ? Or the factory lexus struts better than the ajustable struts. I am also think about putting on my car Tein Cs coilovers.

Save your money and get the TEIN CS coilovers. They are expensive though.

I want to lower my gs with tein cs coilovers. But also my struts needed to be replaced according to my mechanic. I was trying to see if i should just buy factory struts or adjustable struts.

If you want to go the Tein CS way, that's all you need because it's a spring/shock combo...
