I use them with my Dropzone springs. They've treated me well. They're won't last forever, but they should last longer than stock struts. Basically any progressive rate, aftermarket lowering spring will be hard on struts, and I would guess that even with very expensive aftermarket struts like Koni's, cheap(er) lowering springs would eventually wear them out.

Bottom line, if you use progressive rate lowering springs, your struts will wear out....they're a high wear item anyway. But struts like the KYB's, etc. should give you enough life to make them worth the $200 or so.
