I'd stick with stock unless you plan this drag racing as a regular thing, then you need to talk to Juan Ruiz.

I just changed mine and it looked they've been changed before and the car only has 59K miles. I thought about rebuilding them, but I disassembled one and there was noticable wear on the race.
