Default PSS10 Longevity

Hi Folks,

Did a search and couldn't find the answer I was looking for so I am hoping someone can help.


I wanted to get a set of PSS10s for my DD Infiniti G37 but I wanted to know how long (or miles) the PSS10s will last. Since there are more PSS10 owners here than on any forum I'm a part of, I think I will find the answer here.

Any comments are appreciated.

I have them on my 993. I don't know how long they last, but they do come with a lifetime replacement warranty, so I'm not too concerned with how long they last. I'd imagine they last many years, at least.

PSS10s seem like a bit of overkill for a DD, IMO...

I have had mine for less than two years but I like them a lot! Never heard of longevity issues. Mine is short of a daily driver but not a garage queen either....they are up to the task for most useages. Go for it.

I thought the same until I installed them. They are perfect for DD and track. Gives you an easy option to firm things up when needed. Best bang for the buck and no worries with the warranty.

The Pss10 for the Infiniti is about $1500. A set of springs and struts will cost about $1000.
The difference becomes less significant once install and alignment get factored in. There are also discussions on the Infiniti forums on whether camber kits are necessary due to the lack of adjustments on the factory arms. Camber kits will raise the install cost by a lot, and are about $500 for parts alone.

Whereas the spring drop is fixed, coilovers are adjustable. I figure for a more controlled ride, PSS10s sound like a good choice, so I'm doing as much research as I can.

BTW. thank you all for the quick responses.
