Josh, I'm with Nick on this one. My car is approaching 80k and it feels like the dampers are getting near end-of-life.

A friend of mine has the Ohlins R&T on his RX-8 and says they ride very well on the street (he lives in Brooklyn, so not exactly great roads) and are tolerant of reasonably high spring rates.

$3k is a lot, but if you're thinking you'll keep the car for a long time, as I am mine, maybe it's worth it? I was never a fan of the street manners of Bilsteins on my 986.
