Just put my maxspeeds on with my stock struts. I was wondering: Those of you who have done the same thing, how many miles have your stock shocks lasted before you had to replace em??? Or if you're still riding stock with the speeds, how far have you gone??

20K miles and still counting. I'm saving up for the Cattman modified KYB AGX's for my 5th gen.

no. Just make sure you use the isolation sleeves from your stock springs.

16,000 miles and I think my struts are blown. The ride can get bouncy and it's definately not as good as when the Maxspeeds went on. I'm still thinking about which struts to get for replacements but I am leaning towards the GR2's based on affordability. I may dig deeper in my pockets for the modified AXG's, we'll see.
