No they are not the same. BAT Euro struts are dampened more stiffly and are best paired with the springs. They will last longer as well. The ST200 struts are factory valved. If you have the money go with the Euro's. I didn't and went with the ST200's. I think the ST200 were all soldout from BAT.

BAT has the Euro Sports listed as the struts included with the BAT Handling Kit. SPMotorsports has the ST24/200 combo listed as the struts included with the BAT Handling Kit???

Now how about the KYB GR-2 Struts?
Are these worse or better than the Bat Struts?
