Anyone get leaky shocks as a result of lowering springs?

When I bought my car, it had a leaky driver side front strut which was replaced under warranty at 20K miles. I am now at 40K miles, and have had the KW Sleeve over kit installed for the past 5K miles, and the driver side front strut is now leaking again. So basically the new strut had 15K miles on stock springs, 5K on the KW sleeve over kit, and is now leaking again.

Maybe it's just a fluke but starting to wonder if these cars don't like aftermarket springs too much...

Anyone else with leaky struts?
BTW, I have EDC suspension.


Thanks!
