yes you can lower your car on stock shocks. not the best ride, but it's managable.

If you can afford to get proper shocks, than do it.

Your ride will be complete **** with stock shocks

If you have $$ for both, get the shocks and springs at the same time, or better yet, buy them as a pair.

Stock shocks are alright, but the ride will be a bit bumpy

It's all going to depend on the drop. On a milder drop stock shocks should be fine.

If you go lower than 1.5" or so, I would highly recommend getting kyb agx's at the least.
