Impossible to say. If you drive it on smooth roads all the time, they'll last a very long time. If the car only does track events, they will wear out much sooner.

I can't say for sure other than you can count on the fact they are designed to be street driven. They should have a nice long life as opposed to running a true "race" shock on the road.

Mine have between 15-30k on them and they're still hard as a rock.

I can't say my teeth or pillowball bushings will last as long

I've been running them for quite a while on my car (4-5 years?, 30K miles?), too, and they are still in good shape.
