Hard to say since our cars are still new.

Although the spring rate is higher, the shocks should hold for a few years. It also depends on how you drive. If you're a madman, then it'll last alot shorter. You'll know when you start to hit bumps and start bottoming out more frequently. I've had mine since April i think and i'm still running fine.

Everyday, I swear. It's cool though I used to go out everyday with my friend just to chill, shoot some pool, drinks. It's a chill way to relax and just have a good time.

So Linden & Andrew, you guys going out yet?

If not, I'm going to swoop on one of you soon.

here's a review on the resturant:
"Pho Anhoa Noodle House is a place to get a great bowl of Pho noodles if you're in the East Bay and don't feel like driving to the San Jose area. It is the only Pho restaurant that I am aware of in San Leandro, so I had my reservations when I first decided to try it out. But I have since gone there on quite a few occasions because the food is great and tastes authentic, they give you a lot of food at a good price, and there's a variety of choices on the menu. Even if you don't like Pho noodles, you can still try one of many different rice combo plates they have, and some delicious appetizers as well, like their Vietnamese spring rolls."

yeup. like what everybody else said, you can run the stock shocks for a few years. i'm planning to run stock shocks, then right before my warranty is up, change back to stock springs and get new shocks from the dealership.

you'll have to upgrade within a few years. I've been running H&R Sports for about 7 months now, no problems.
