KYB Shocks & Struts Excel-G Front Cadillac CTS AWD 2008-12 (Exc. Magna-Ride)

When you're looking to get your 2008-2012 Cadillac CTS AWD back to how it handled when it was new, the KYB Excel-G front struts are a solid choice. These aren't about changing the feel of your car; they're about bringing back the original ride control, stability, and responsiveness that you expect from your CTS. KYB is a major supplier to car manufacturers, and these Excel-G struts are built on the same lines using the same quality parts as the ones originally installed on your vehicle.

The Excel-G design uses a nitrogen gas charge and a twin-tube construction, which helps maintain consistent performance. This means you'll get back that confident handling for stopping, lane changes, and general driving. Because they're made to match the original factory specifications, they fit right in and work with your vehicle's existing suspension setup without needing modifications.

KYB recommends replacing your strut mounts at the same time you install these struts, specifically part number SM5844, to help reduce the chance of noise and vibration. Getting new strut mounts along with the struts ensures you're addressing the whole assembly for the best possible result.
