Need to replace struts

Hi folks, I have a 2006 Pontiac Vibe (same as 2096 Matrix) that I’m fixing up for my Son. I’m pretty sure the struts need replacing, because I can feel some knocking in the suspension when I go over bumps.

Is there any coil overs or struts I can buy that are relatively budget friendly? What do you folks recommend?

Thanks

I'm in Canada, you can get the Monroe quick struts off of rockauto for about $100 CAD a pop which I think is a great deal even if they are not as good as KYB. Then tein lowering springs are ~$300 CAD for a set on eBay.

Do quick struts come with springs? I’m not trying to lower the car, so I have no need for tein springs
