I April2011, about 20K miles ago, I put Monroe GasMagnums on my
90Westy & so far I have not
encountered any reasons to feel anything but good about them. Right
now @ RockAuto they are $24.79
for the Fronts & $32.79 for the rears.
By the way ~ I run 15"EuroVan SteelWheels on Westy with 225/60r15
Fronts & 235/75r15 Rears ~
I do use Spacers with these wheels for better clearance ~ 1/2"Front &
3/4"Rear (SlidingDoor clears by 1/16")
