05 stock strut/shocks trouble with prodrive?

anyone know how long my stock strut/shocks will last if i install prodrive springs for the 05? should i buy the kyb shocks before i do the install?

i remember reading somewhere that the stockers are reasonably compatible with prodrive springs..

How many miles on your current struts? The stock struts work well with prodrive springs. From all the posts Ive read, the prodrives on stock struts for are good for ~ 40K - 60K miles.

I just bought prodrive springs and Im waiting for the kybgr2 to arrive in the mail. I have 52K miles so I figured I might as well do it all at once.
