Default Re-use spring dampers?

I'm installing a set of Eibach Pros and I'm wondering do I need to re-use the spring damper (rubber coil inside the spring) from the stock springs?

The eibach pros are a progressive spring. I did get new poly isolators. Have you had an issues not running the damper?
