Unless the struts leak, there is no need to replace them.
The part of the suspension that eventually sags a little bit are the springs,
My car has now 171,000 miles on the OEM M030 Struts, but I replaced the springs at 120,000 miles.
BTW I calculate that about 11,000 of those miles are hard track miles.
Happy Boxstering,
Pedro
