Default I'm too bouncy!!!!

I have had eibach sportline springs on my car a year now and I am at the point where if I hit bumps in the road, dips or whatever, my car seems to bounce around way to much lol. I was told I would eventually need to replace the struts as soon as that started to happen.. my question is, should I replace all 4? or just the rear struts first? The rear seems to be very bouncy. Someone told me awhile back that I would only need to replace the rear struts because the front ones would be able to handle it. Anyway I was gonna go with Koni Yellows, lol is there an equivalent to them cause they are pricey?

Replace both front and rear. Not sure how much koni's are but check Tokicos.

My struts are already starting to go too... I have TRD springs and my car only has 7K miles. Sigh..........

I don't know if I wanna save up and get coil-overs or get a spring/strut combo???

Tokico is usually a direct replacement of stock, designed to operate just like the OEM struts. I wouldn't recommend them for such a low drop as the Sportlines. I would say go with Koni if you an afford it.
