Why would you want to but new struts when the Tokicos are lifetime 
warranty?

I think that OEM springs may be softer, but I doubt that you can 
get them, except from anyone except, maybe Russ McCoy.

I would replace the Tokicos, if they are bad, maybe get a set of 
used springs from a '95, and then get a softer tire.  Stay with a 
60 series tire in an "R" rating rather than the OEM "V".

I had a set of OEM sized SIRXON4 Sumitomo's from Tire Rack that at 
$53+/- each were a good ride and a good value.

regards, Jim White
