Agreed, genuine are good, on the front Monroe are a bit better but about twice the price, DeCarbon are good and I fit a lot of ProComp.

Britpart Cellular are ok but there's a lot of choice in their price range, I find them a tad less crashy than ProComp but I'm not sure I'd buy another set.

Terrafirma / Monroe / DeCarbon get my vote, The jury is still out on the Britpart supergaz's and the procomps are a tad soft and are prone to losing the chrome on the top of the shaft.

You find ProComp soft :-k  Interesting.

Totally agree with any of the others though, just watch Monroe on the back, they used to have a reputation for the eyelets letting go.
