Strut mounts

Should these be replaced when upgrading suspension (my car has ~40K miles)? Assume dealer is the place to source these parts - any ballpark on prices?



Thanks in advance -

way overpriced!! You'd be better off getting camber plates for the front instead.

as for the rear, the only thing that would go bad is the foam insert - there are PU inserts for $75 or so. IIRC, the full OEM rear set of mounts with inserts is like $240.....about $200 more than they should be based on what other brands sell similar parts for (Honda, Subaru, etc).
