I put Bilstein struts on a 1976 VW Dasher. They had good rebound damping but the most amazing characteristic was the low speed compresion damping. I could drive over speed bumps like they weren't there.
If I could put them on my 'X I would.

Do they make any aftermarket struts for the X??


I'm coming up on replacement time for my OEM shocks and struts...and there seems to be no aftermarket front strut options

The only after market ones I've found are KYB G-2's on Tire Rack. For Maxima's the G-2's are supposed to be 15% stiffer than stock. Idk how the G35x stock compare.
