Ok here is the thing, i lowered my g with tein h-tech 350z springs, and riding on some 19's. so far i have blown 2 struts. my front left one, got that replaced, then my front right one blew. All i care about is that no more struts blow. I really dont know why they are blowing, its not like im driving and hitting bumps at mach 10, or anything, they just blow. I would appreciate if you guys could give me some advice on what kind of strut i should buy, and if your selling them (brand new please) I will buy them from you. Also please give me a resonable price to work with. Comon guys i just got back from Iraq serving overseas for 1yr 3 months.

 

For how long/ how many miles did you have the H-techs on before your struts blew? And what 19" are you running? I'm very surprised because the H-techs are a relatively mild drop. I've noticed that people on this board couldn't care less about upgrading their shocks when they lower their cars. Tokico D-specs seem to be the most popular aftermarket shocks...

im getting my tein coilovers this friday....interested in my stock ones?

 

You need to invest in higher capacity dampers like the D-Specs for your
aftermarket springs especially at those higher spring rates.

my left shock blew the next day i put on my springs, and my right shock blew about a month and a half after. im running 19x35 with an offset of 36 and my rears i have 19x45 i think. I have 275x45 tires in the front and 275x35 in the rear,.

Thank for the offer, but are they new?? and how much.. let me know.

 

Dood, just spend the money to get some more suitable shocks for the higher springer rate and lower drop. The Tokicos can be had for $500 for a set of 4. Check on ebay. If you stick with the stock shocks you'll just end up blowing them again sooner or later.
