Guys running Ground control/Koni yellows. How long should shocks expect to last???

I've heard good reviews and also bad, One shop guy in particualr w/ lots of knowledge saying the Koni's w/ GC last about a year only usually. Is their any truth to that?? I hope not. Any insite?? Thanks. Keep in mind this is w/ a car that is pretty low but definately NOT slammed.

There is a LOT of "I heard" on the internet.

Just like "all the horror stories of Hydrolocking because of a CAI. Sure it happens, but for every 1 story you hear of it happening there are 100s that you dont hear of because it hasnt happened.
