Default back to stock suspension?

Okay, since I have read a few times from people who had switched back to stock suspension I may ask a few questions.

1) What suspension did you have before you switched back to stock.

2) why do you think the stock is better than your aftermarket one?

3) I have lowering springs from ap, my owner before me put these in. I can not say anything against it, cause the ITR is sticky like hell in the curves, but then again I have no comparison.

4) This springs are now more than 2 years in (about 1.25 inch lower) should I replace the shocks too when I switch back to stock springs? Is it possible that the shocks are worn out after 2 years with lowerd springs?

I would definitely check out the shocks before putting back your stock springs. I remember hearing that after 15,000 miles (25,000km?) of hard driving, the shocks go bad gradually until it just quits working properly.

Were you lowering springs stiffer than your stock ones?
