Hey guys I was thinking of droping my 97 with some H&R Race springs which lowers it about 2". Now i think to myself hum.. why dont i get some KONI SA shocks while I am at it. Now my question is how long do you guys think my stock shocks will last on my Mtech 318ti. I am about to hit 100,000 miles. Second thing is has anyone lowered there car around 1"-2" and if so could you email me at missionman08@hotmail.com

Thanks
Chris

Your stock shocks are probably toast by now. Shocks normally last 50K to 75K miles. They wear out in the mid range first and the old push on the car and see how the shock rebounds is not a reliable test.

You can see my TI in the Album or under my profile.

I have a Dinan Stage II suspension which lowered the TI about an inch.
