NEVER do springs on stock struts. I have the Tokico HP set. It came with the Tokico blue struts and Tokico springs which are made by eibach. It is a very nice set and was under 500 bucks. Good luck

tein s.tech on stock shocks should be fine..the ride should be real close to stock, the tein s.techs were made specificly to be sued with stock shocks, the drop is very mild about 1.5 in. and the spring rates r kept only slytely stiffer than stock, they werent engineered to increase ur perform much though, just for sumone to wants a lowered ride, so dunt expect great improvements to ur cornering...

EDIT: holy shyt my grammar and spelling is so bad up there, im not even gon bother to change it

Yes I agree you are a complete idiot. There is no such thing as a lowering spring that is "made to ride on stock shocks/struts" No matter what lowering spring you use on stock struts will ride like ****. No question about it.
