You could be okay for about a year or with the stock struts and shocks. However they might leak, but the factory ones are not designed to be lowered.
I had to replace mine after I lowered my 01 because they were leaking so I went with Kon's sports for there lifetime warranty and adjustability. Good Luck,
and just keep on eye to make sure they won't leak, and you might want to get an alignment after lowering.
