use you're stock shocks and struts.

Without struts you're front end wont stay together.

i have the same springs eibach pro kit and i have the KYB adjustable shocks and struts and it rides good. i like the springs alot. as far as using stock struts and shocks it will be a little stiffer i would amagine. look on ebay you can get the kyb shocks on there for cheaper than you can on summit or anywhere else. thats where i got mine. just thought i would let you know

you can use your stock shocks and struts and it will handle fine with the lowering springs

Do you give the same answer as someone else on every post or is it an echo in here?No wonder you have 2800 post in 4 months most are useless

Back to topic, I dont understand why someone would tell you that it handles like crap cause it will be fine
