are my springs still good?
Hey gang,

Getting ready to do a full suspension on my car. New struts(kyb gr2) all around, all new hardware front and rear. My NX2000 has 294K on the clock right now. Needless to say I am excited about the new suspension, but I'm wondering about my springs. Do they go bad? I don't want to buy new springs if I don't have to. Please advise.

Yes, springs go bad. They can begin to sag over time. It would definitely be worthwhile to get new ones.

Is there a such thing as rejuvenating or conditioning them in any way? I've already spent like $700 on suspension parts.

If you're spending that much on a nice susp. setup, don't ruin it by keeping your old worn out springs man. There is probably a material process that can re-stiffen them, but I doubt it would be cheap or worth doing.

Just keep them as backups or something

Low miles used OEM. Or be cool and get hypercos or road magnets.

EDIT: Road Magnets...where can I get them? You guys are asses, making me spend more money. Keep in mind, this is for just daily driving.
