@Krispeee you made my decision. I'll stick with Eibach Pro Kit (1") instead of Sportline (1.4")

Thank you all for the interest!!

Most shock manufacturers suggest replacing or rebuilding them after ~80k km's, sure they'll last much longer, but doesn't mean they're designed to last forever.

Good choice, I will also suggest to stay at 1" of drop maximum like some others say.

I do not run any camber adjustment stuff for the moment but I have an good alignment and it's perfect.

I run Mach V springs.

My car is my dd also and no problems at all with the hard winter we have in Québec Canada.

It was a joke.
