Lifespan of OEM Suspension

anyone know what is the lifespan for the OEM sport suspension?
my car's at 91,000 miles and still running stock sport suspension, do i need to start looking for replacement?

also, if i change my springs (H&R), will it shorten the lifespan?

I would change it, at least get it inspected for wear and stuff.

springs will make them wear faster, and you are already up there in miles, so change them both at the same time.

About 80K miles, give or take for the condition of roads you drive on. At 91 it's done.

Take at look at Koni FSD shocks/struts, I'm considering that for mine (I'm at 63K miles.)
