So far they've held up great, just looked it up and that was 2013. I've actually been thinking that I am due for new inserts and should probably look into that. Just wrote the company to see how often they recommend rebuilding and if they sell the inserts separately.
As for the SSK we agree, first time I got to drive a Z4 with the SSK I was sold. Great mod and worth every penny.

It's a 570GT in volcano orange, it looks matte because I have it wrapped in clear bra to protect the paint.
I got the GT model (versus the S or spider) because I wanted an upgrade in both performance and comfort. And it definitely lives up to both.
My favorite thing about it is how stiff the car is. It's so rigid because of the materials and construction, but still manages to have a more comfortable and compliant suspension than the Z, and the Z has a KW suspension kit.
Here's the before/after of the 570 being wrapped:
