228i xDrive H&R Springs on stock shocks

Thinking of getting H&R Springs for the xDrive with stock shocks.

Wondering how is long term on stock shocks with aftermarket springs? Will it shorten the life of the shocks? Springs are about 200 bucks, do I need anything else if I'm still running stock wheels?

M Performance suspension is 1000 bucks right now, but if long term after 2 or 3 years it will kill my shocks, it may be worth getting the M performance suspension.

All I'm looking to do is to firm up the ride and don't care much about the looks so getting springs is the best option.

Thanks

Roman

H&R offer the most popular springs for your car, wouldnt be too worried about it shortening the life of your shocks.

Can you get the M Performance Suspension for xDrive? If so that irritates me more that the base M-Sport xDrive gets the suspension removed that the RWD Car gets.
