We try to swap them at about 40k miles, but the ones we've removed have held pressures very well

Did you ever pull yours to check them or did you just replace them at 48k? Because I would like to just do that. I would like to run them for 40k and not have to worry about checking them if I could

Why do these questions come back again and again?
Springs DO NOT HAVE AN EXPIRATION DATE. Once you cam, part of it all is to do a maintenance check on them. Once a year or every 15K miles.
They can last from 100 miles after install to over 40K miles after.
There is no light that comes on and asks to change them.
I get so tired of the same Qs say after day. Do a bloody search function.
Before you cam, have the right budget, include money for tune immediately. There will be increased maintenance, do not take shortcuts, do it right the first time or do not touch your car.

Then don't click the link to read the thread. Get off your high horse and let the man ask the question. If your time is so valuable, don't spend it all surfing the net.
Some of the overblown know it all attitudes are really getting old around here.
I hope you were just having a bad day before you responded.
Parts of your answer are correct. There is no set time. I has more to do with mileage with a particular cam profile. That being said TSP is know to have some pretty aggressive lobes in the selection.

Did you even take note that the OP posted the question in '05 and had an answer from the horse's mouth in 05? If you need to pitch a fit do so at the person that responded to the 6 year old thread.
slt200 - no offense intended.
I'm curious on the experiences with the .675 EHT springs so far as I run these.
