Default Sportlines and stock shocks/struts

I have an 05 with about 50k on it... and I came across a great deal on some sportlines. I was wondering if I kept my stock shocks/struts would that ride be okay with my 20s?? I've searched but I found mixed opinions and couldn't find a definite answer.

So overall would it be a problem if i ran just new springs on my 05 with 50k and kept the rest of the suspension stock?

how many miles do you have? and how long does it generally take for the stock stuts to go out?

You need to just go ahead and do a shock and strut and adjustable pan hard bar at the same time.
