Strut wear with S Techs
 
Hey guys this is my first post before I hopefully make a build thread soon! my car is basically new it's got 7000 miles on it and I was wondering how long my stock struts are going to last before they blow out with the lowering spring?

Well, I have eibach sport lines, I put them on at about 12k miles. Its been two years and i just hit 50k and theyre still running strong.

I'm on trd's and my rear struts are starting to leak fluids in very very small amounts at 50k. Occasional driving on pretty rough roads around Los Angeles. Could be normal wear because I remember seeing somewhere that struts should be changed around 50k miles.

Struts leaking at 50k miles? Wot?

My rear right one is leaking, I am at 43k.

I can see that. S-Techs are pretty damn aggressive for OEM struts. I wonder if I'll make it to 60-80k with my Megan springs...

It is only one leaking, so my guess is that it just has a defect but of course it is after warranty is up.
