Rear Struts going, looking at options - 94 ST Options

[Madlife]

I have a few questions as the rear struts are on their way out on the g/f's 94 ST. 160k miles.. Im pretty new to celicas

Is there any difference between the GT struts/springs and ST? if so are they a direct swap?

Should I replace the springs as well or would it be okay to do just the struts. {besides the obvious looks/performance gains}


If I should replace the springs, I am looking at going with the Tein S-tech. from what I read they are still a comfortable ride? The lady isnt into performance driving, but I'm all in favor for giving a car a little bit of extra grip and improving the looks a bit BUT I still want it to be comfortable for her because she does have some back issues. NY has tons of snow and pretty crappy roads so I dont want to go too low and stiff..

Also I have some 16" GTS rims and decent tires for when the snow vanishes. .
