Default struts

I want to lower my car as soon as possible and i was looking for a pair of struts that can handle the abouse of the Ebiach lowering springs. I figure if I am going to get the springs i might as well get the struts at the same time since my stock struts are gonna get raped by the springs. I saw the Mopar suspension kits but they are like $1000+ and i was hoping to spend a little less than that $700 would be do able though. So whats a good set of struts that will fit on my 04 SXT and can handle the springs?
Thanks

I have no personal experience with these ones, but I've read on other message boards that Tokico Blue's I believe can handle the 1.5 inch drop of the Eibachs. I don't know for sure, thats only what I've read elsewhere, might want to wait for someone with some real experience with different struts to chime in.

Tokicos are damn good struts the ones they make for altimas can with stand a 2" drop without much problem. I would stay away from Kyb they aren't much stiffer then stock.

are the Tokico Blue's the same as the Tokico HP's? Because i searched for the blues and i got results for the HP's, (which are blue)

I looked on neons.org and some people on there were pleased with them and used them with Eibach Pro's so they look like some good struts. i found a set of 4 for $337 and then $200 for the springs so about $550, which is much better than $1000
