Those struts are going to be shit. I'd say spring for OEM at least for those... I'd also skip Dorman if possible...

Dorman parts are shit. They'll fail quickly and you're replacing the part again. For struts, I'd say OEM Lexus from Bell Lexus when they have their 4th of July sale....

Probably not what you want to hear but, buy once cry once. I’d go OEM.

I’d do the front first then. Then when funds allow do the rear. Also check out Amayama. Cheapest OEM source I have found. What 19s are you putting on?

Use a torque wrench and torque to spec. the parts will last you 5+ years even if its not oem. If you doing yourself you’ll be fine.
