I am against racing struts for street driving. They barely will handle extreme racing conditions when a car gets crazy. I have seen instances where a car only gets out of shape and spins on the high end and never hits anything but the strut gets bent. Not always but it has happened.

That means you are left with tubulat control arms and coil over shocks which are not really that heavy as compared to struts.

Or my favorite.
Corvette C-4 Front suspension control arms, spindles, and brakes installed with coil over shocks. Light, good handling and strong.
