| Well it does depend on mileage, but it also depends on how you treated them. You can buy a car with 60k miles on it, and it can still be a piece of shit. | |

as long as coilovers aren't blown, mileage doesnt really matter.
Im sorry, but that makes no sense. Mileage is the one thing that causes coilovers to progressively go bad. Its not like coilovers are perfect up until a certain magical point that they just blow.
Not saying that these are blown, just saying that statement is false. what if theyve seen 10 drift events, and have like 3000miles on em? | |

| I dont know, what if? What are you trying to say?
Drift events are probably much easier on coilovers than a given amount of daily driving. Most drift courses should be relatively free of giant potholes, bumps, and conditions that cause shocks to go bad over time.
My whole point was that mileage is a very good indicator of coilover condition. You said it doesnt matter. | |
