Any one with coil overs for a long period of time have any impression of them? Im looking for people with other a Year or 15k miles on them.. Please list age / mileage/ issues / where you are from for road conditions and if you are satisfied with them.

Thanks in advance!!

I know it's not an LS but I had Megan Street LP's on my SC300 for almost two years without any issue. I sold them to a friend a year ago and he said they're holding up just fine. They had about 12,000 miles on them when I sold them and my friend currently uses them for drifting.

As far as road conditions go, the roads out here are horrible. We've got giant pot holes that I've destroy bumpers, wheels, and shocks. The Megans gave me no trouble at all. I currently have 1,500 miles on my Megan EZ's for my LS and they seem to be fine so far.

yeah but 12k isnt much my feeling is they only really last about 20k but people never have them that long before switching.

The fact no one has responded to this thread is concerning. I think ill stay oem.

Yeah, I totally see where you're coming from. I've always gotten the feeling coilovers don't last long because I've seen so many rebuilt with under 10,000 miles on them.

I have a friend that had around 80,000 miles on a set of Tein Flex coilovers on his SC300 and I've seen a few last about 40,000+ miles before being sold HKS coilovers last a long time too.

Had Tein SS on an accord for about 140K miles.....no problems... Now have BC on my SC for about 25K miles over a period of 2 -3 years -- no problems.... Seems BC is the way people are going these days. .... Megan might be ok tooo.. All depends on ur budget and how crazy u wanna go.

I have BC Coilovers. I bought my LS with 80,000+ miles. I installed the coilovers that same week. I now have 130,000+ miles. i can't remember the year I bought the car but I've had the car for over 2 years. Driven everyday. The ride of the car on the coilovers still feels the same from when i first put them on. Very Satisfied with these coilovers.

Bump finally about to pull the trigger (dont ask) any other feedback.

it all depends on how the road conditions and how your going to drive it, for daily driving i dont see them blowing quickly.

I'm somewhere around 85-90k miles on my BC's, no issues so far. I inspected the bodies for seal damage/leakage about 6 weeks ago and everything was clean. I think my higher spring rates and smooth road conditions are helping the longevity. I've yet to even reset the dampers to stiffer(common to do when they start to wear out a bit).
