2 weeks? Wow... I know they'd have their lives shortened, but not THAT drastically. How many miles were on the car at that point?

A lot. On the other hand, my '95 SE ran on Sprint springs for 3 years with sock struts just fine. Proper struts make a big difference though.

If I have 8000 miles on my stock struts and springs. If I were to get Eibach Pro Kits I should be fine on my shocks and struts for probabaly like 50k miles correct?

I will definitely be getting an alignment but thats all that is neccesary with getting the pro kits?
