I recently broke two rear shock towers within 10 minutes of each other. It would be tempting to put on carbon towers, but i was the cause of the failure, not the towers. Bought three pairs of stock towers for the price of one carbon tower, and will work on driving better. Thats my solution for what it's worth.
