Is it true that the Eibach springs will only last 15K miles until they start wearing out already? I wasn't sure if that was true so I wanted to double check on it.
My question is,... where did you hear this From?

Eibach springs are TUV approved.. much harder to get that approval than to get DOT. I really doubt that the germans would put the stamp of approval on a product that would wear out that fast.

springs will settle down a bit, but it's normal.
springs don't wear so fast.
But it could be possible if you overload you car too much.

I concur! But what do you consider 'overloading'? A driver and 3 passengers? Or were you thinking of something a little more dramatic than that?

yeah, more dramatic, like driver + 4 passenger and full trunk. (like 1300+ lbs)

Quite simply...no.
