Estimated mileage/time that stock shocks would last on MTM spring only addition on Avant?
Even though I've spent thousands on mods on my 39 mon leased S4Avant, just can't seem to want to "spring" for the min costs of :
$1200+ for coilovers, $900(+$100 for perches) Intrax/koni plus install.
I don't expect to put more than 8K miles/yr on the avant (other car is a NSX)
Therefore, my question is, if I just do the MTM springs,(dampering rate OK for stock), drive mostly streets in New England,only a few autocrosses/yr.Can I hope to get 30k miles estimated on stock shocks?
Guess most people will flame me and say I ought to cough up the bucks for adding shocks or go coilovers, right?
