I'm looking into changing my stock struts this spring due to them going on 4 years old and 60k on them.
I installed Eibach Pro Kit springs about 3 years ago with somewhere around 20k on the car. They are not blown out or anything,but I just feel that the handling and ride performance is starting to go away on them.
So the question is do I just buy new struts and install my existing Eibach's on them,or get new springs to install on the new struts? Never really heard of springs going bad, but I figured maybe since I'll have everything apart just maybe go new all around,or is that not necessary?If there is no need to replace the springs then I'd rather just change the struts. I don't know maybe its just my OCD kicking in
Any info or advice would be helpful,thanks!

Oh yeah, by the way should I go with KYB, Tokico, or TRD for the struts?

 

If you can, go with coilovers. for the price of springs + struts + installation, coilovers are only $100-$300 price difference, and you are getting all the benefits of having a better suspension.

 

Watching.

 

reuse the springs and you can go with either trd or tokico shocks, all depends where you can find a better deal for them. coilovers if you wanna spend more money so you can mess around with the ride height and leave your current set-up on the side just incase anything where to ever happen.

 

If you haven't noticed the springs beginning to sag after that long, just reuse the springs.

 

No sagging that I can tell. Coil overs would be nice but I cant justify spending that kind of money for just a daily driver. If I was gonna auto x or make it a show car then yeah I would go with coil overs,but that is not my intentions.
I'm just curious to know if anybody has any knowledge of springs wearing prematurely, which may lead me to investing in new ones when I change over to new struts.Since I'm easy on the car I don't think I have anything to worry about,I'll just slap my existing Eibach's on some new struts and add some new 18's to the mix
Thanks all for your feedback so far!
