Can't say how long they will last, I only have about 20K on mine, but I went Bilstein, very happy with them.

I'm not really a shock snob though, I waited until 162K to do the fronts........

Might want to consider the Carli, Kore or Lorenz level kit w/Bilstein shocks for an improved ride. But ya can't go wrong with Bilstein.
