Coilover Install (strut mounts?)

About to pull the plug on a pair of Sachs coilovers. Was wondering can I re use my strut mounts or is this a wear item? Car has about 85k on it right now.

Ill let you guys know how the Sachs are once installed since its been tough to find reviews on them on here.

You would have to check the wear on the mounts to see if needed. If they look good then leave them alone.

why not spend a lil bit more $$ and get new mounts since those are getting removed with the install?

Ended up getting new mounts since they are cheap enough. With everyone's replies I figured why not put new ones in?

Excellent decision, especially at 85K miles.
