- Mag ride struts and shocks. If / when they wear out they'll be more expensive to replace versus a standard unit.

Of course, you can also option an SS with big brakes and mag ride, and at that point the only added cost of a 1LE is the tires.

I'd say it's minimal in the scheme of things and if you're not tracking the car the lifespan of these things will be exponentially increased.
Oo, also.. any idea typically when i'd need to look into fixing up my brakes/mag ride as a normal driver who doesn't drive the car toooo hard and doesn't track? Around what mile range and how much would the costs be? If you'd know! Ty.
