Lowering on stock struts can be fine. Even a harsh drop (over 2") can last up to 2 years on good stock components, (mine did)

But if you just want a mild drop like tein s-techs or H&R sport, stock shocks/struts will be fine.

As long as they're not the "race" springs, they will ride fine.

If youy only need like 1 1.7" drop, go with the tein s.techs. Super reviews and a quality product.
