sounds to me your using OEM struts and lowering springs which is the wrong way of lowering a car. That extra stress on the strut causes them to fail sooner. You need a good aftermarket strut like Koni Yellows.

lowering w/ stock shocks = blown shocks.

Prolly the KYBs. I put them on my -exes Lude (while we were together) and a few friends run them as well. But they are NO WHERE as adjustable as the Koni's (4 levels of damping vs infinte) and don't handle high spring rates as well.
