how long have you gone?

To all the people who have dropped their civics: i have a set of goldlines and i dont wanna buy new shocks so my question for you all is.. How long did it take for your stock shocks to blow after you have installed the springs? also what kind of roads do you travel on?

I've got the Neuspeed (race) 2.25in drop, they have been on for over a year and my shocks and struts are still good. They say it depends how long they will last by the way you drive!

I put my Neuspeed Sports on in April, and I think my rear struts are gone. They are really bouncy now and the back bottoms out if anyone (even little people) are in the back seat.

Hold on, I don't get it? So if you install aftermarket springs than your stock shock will
blow soon after? What's the point than? I just bought a set of Tein S Tech Springs
but now I don't know if I should install them if my shocks won't last long after.
