I just did a search on the strange 10 ways and I hear the struts clunk a lot (or used to 2+ years ago).

Mine don't clunki bought the mm kit for strange struts(other brands were included but don't remember which ones) and already had mm c+c plates installed. I love this setup and have no complaints at all. Maybe mine is just "lucky"? Idk. I believe @HotFox has the same setup and he liked it also(if memory serves) and he probably drove his more(obviously mine hasn't moved much...grrrr)

Edit: I drove it about 5-10 (25-75mile round) trips this year around 500miles I would guess and no issues/noises that I could hear(it is a loud ass Flowmaster kit afterall. Lol)

I believe that when MM sells a coil over kit to go with a specific strut they make sure that c/o kit fits that strut real snug. Others like UPR is an attempt to be a one size fits all c/o kit and they end up rattling if you don't duct tape them first.

I think MM will be what I go with. Just need to donate a little more plasma and a couple dozen more donations at the spermo bank and I'll get the $$ for the purchase.

Yes just under 1000 miles this summer.

Mine do not rattle and have the same setup as @A5literMan stated. 150 lbs springs, Strange Struts, UPR coiI over and MM caster plates. Watching that video sure they would rattle if your using a spring rate found in a bic pen. Even with 150lbs springs I had to assemble the coil over full down to start the nut on the strut. IMO there is enough preload on the coil over to keep from rattling.
