Default 2000EX / Has anyone had suspension problems with

I currently have over 160K on my car. The original suspension seems fine on all 4 corner's, but I do have some feathering on my tires. They currently have >30K on them. I do drive hard also, take exit ramps at the limit. I'm going to need tires in about another 10K and I'm going to have the car aligned. Based upon your experience, do you believe that I need struts at this mileage?

Take a close look at the spring for cracks. Take a look at the dampener to see if there is any oil leaking from where the push rod goes into the housing.

I would probably do a good inspection of the suspension system. Google ericthecarguy suspension noise to find a good video on inspecting the suspension.
