which shock is better out of these 2 shocks?

I have 2 sets of rear shocks. Both are new. One is MAZDA OEM part I guess from Mazda.

Other is a Monroe shock.

Which set should I keep and which one should I get rid of. I am leaning on keeping the MAZDA shocks due to looks and construction.

I have no idea who makes either one so thats the reason I asked. I didnt mean to buy both sets but they were both on Ebay at the same time and I really thought I would get outbid on at least one set. turns out nobody else was looking that day and I won them both.

I had no choice but to get some cheap replacements for my OEM shocks on my GXL that are worn out .

So please dont say to sell all of them and get some Tokico's or something like that.

If I could I would have to begin with.


thanks

Mike

Monroes are crap! Pitch them. The OEM dampeners are good. Similar to Tokico HP. Rumor is Tokico makes the Mazda OEM dampeners to Mazda's specs.
