are these struts any good?

Im experiencing the hollow sound from the rear when i go over bumps etc and Im pretty sure the struts are done, I have a 96 Maxima GLE, would these struts be sufficient for me? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...wItem

Im not looking for aftermarket anything, my wife will be driving it while im in Air Force Tech school etc. I checked autozone and a few other places and they wanted about 70 each strut so these with shipping are about 105 for both rears.thanks in advance

I've never heard of strutworx, but they might be just fine. I don't think you'll get any great preformance from them, and I'd still look into a pair of Monroe's if you want to keep the stock suspension.

Monroe and Gabriel are the 2 best aftermarket strut/shock mfgs. IMO. I'd stick with either one of those even though they may be a little bit more pricey. Just remember, you get what you pay for. Usually...
