    Also if these work what springs would be a good one to run for stock height? And would I only need this and springs or would there be anything else you guys suggest? I don't know much about suspension :/

    I just put a set of these on my GXP. They work great. If you want stock ride height use the stock springs. Unless your current struts are new, i would also replace the upper strut mounts.

    Yes, the GXPs come with the softer version and these are a bit firmer and better overall.

    Springs that will keep you stock height...let me see...oh stock springs...those usually work.

    Replace the front top mounts, inspect the rears, you usually can keep those longer since it has no moving parts.

    From what I understand the stock GXP struts are set up in between the comfort series and the sport and were a GM spec part. So the sport will be stiffer than stock and the comfort series will be softer than stock. I installed the comfort series on my 08 GXP and I am happy with them.
