I'm at the same place... I have to have wheel bearings replaced up front, so why not go ahead and do the struts and save on labor costs.

Struts last 100k or so. So, both of you don't really need to replace them any time soon, but you both do need rear upper adjustable toe arms to correct the alignment issues associated with lowering springs or you'll be eating rear tires in 5k miles.

If you plan to keep your car at least another 50-100k, then replace the struts now. If you know you'll tire of the car and trade it in a year or two, then I would not spend the cash. Let the next guy do it.
