Don't get those struts. They're awful. If you're wanting to get oem replacements just get Monroe's.
If your not lowered, check out
Rock Auto If you are lowered, Rock Auto sells AGX's But Id stay away from LOTEK and Staggs.

I've never used the lotek's but i'm lowered 1.5" right now on staggs and i love them. Much better than factory, it handles way tighter in corners and took away almost all of my bodyroll.
^^^ Your struts aren't blown yet?? How long have you been driving on them?
You can search or ask any knowledgeable member on this forum but I am sure they will all agree....
Stagg, lotek, drop zone struts all = Garbage
Drop zone, megan, no name ebay coil overs springs all = Garbage
Monroe, Gabriel, KYB GR2 = Good FACTORY replacement struts
KYB AGX, HP Blue or D specs, Koni, = Good Strut for lowering with good springs
Eibach pro or sportlines, Tein, H & R springs, Suspension tech, etc = Good lowering springs
The Suspension FAQ sticky is outdated but still has some good basic info on there.

they've been on the car for about two months now and still ride smooth as the day i put them on.
Not trying to bash you or anything but you may want to start a new suspension savings fund. There is even a agx/intrax springs combo (can't find anything bad on
Intrax other than they say 1.7" but sag to 2") for $350 in the
classified, even comes complete with mounts.
New brand name suspension stuff is expensive and a suspension is not something that a person should cheap out on. If you do want to cheap out on it (like I did) then buy used good cond. brand name stuff.
