Hey guys I installed some S-Techs over OEM shocks at about 30000 miles. Just broke 70k and noticing the suspension is really starting to soften up and bottom out sometimes. My question is should I replace my springs as well as my shocks? I don't really know the lifespan of the S-techs.

Thanks

Chances are it is the shocks and not the springs. I had similar issues, sent my springs to Tein and they tested out just fine. I replaced my shocks and the issues went away.

Leave the springs, replace the shocks...problem solved.

Pretty impressive you got 40k out of the OEM shock Tein S-Tech combo. Yeah, like everyone said, change the shocks.
You can go OEM, Tokico, Koni or many other ways,

Gonna go Koni yellows I just wanna make sure the springs aren't toasted before I do all the work only to have to redo it. I already have to pull my transmission for a second time because of insufficient lube on the clutch fork
