Peter and all, thank you for the quick responses!
Yeah, new will cost me less than rebuild. If I could get them rebuilt
somewhat stiffer might be worthwhile. I'll look into it further. Advice
appreciated; these lasted me the better part of 10 years and I won't have
the car another 10, I am guessing, so value as spares are limited, but I can
always resell them.
