Is it worth replacing struts?

Do they really have any effect on tire life if not leaking oil? (One's been clunking on bumps for 5+ years, I think it the top mount).

It ate the current set of front in 18,000 miles I couldn't find anything loose yesterday and had the car aligned once it it's life a 2 years or so ago. Going to try to get the get alignment checked tomorrow and see if he can see something loose that I didn't.
if one is broken and you know it's broken you can be liable if that causes an accident i.e wheel falls off hits another car., or you lose control and causes an accident
