Default TC Springs

Just looking for opinions on TC springs.

Do you think that TC springs eventually wear out or sag out? And if so what do you think the life cycle is on springs?

If you go by general data on spring steels, or steels in general for that matter, we never get close enough to the fatigue strength to affect the metal at all. Fatigue life is generally a few million cycles on a spring that acts both in tension and compression, but for automotive springs (read: touring springs) the number of cycles is generally much higher.
