Default Steeda HD struts

Anyone tried them?? I've got lowering springs on my car with bumpsteer and balljoint kits but I keep blowing out the front shocks... wondering if anyone else has had this problem or something like it. looking for a relatively cheap solution

You've got lowering springs with the stock shocks?

How low is the drop, and yeah I run the HD mounts, they work just like they are supposed to. I don't think they are gonna keep your shocks from blowing.

I think your springs just allow your car to travel too low and you blow your shocks.

That's what i figured... I've got the eibach pro which from what I've read is one of the most drops. I was also considering switching to the steeda sport springs as well. Shocks are too expensive to keep buying over and over! And my initial question was about Steeda's pro-action shock/strut factory replacement not the HD mount

Yeah, I think 1.3" front and 1.4" back is too much for the stock shocks.
