Default help me buying coilover~~!!

well, i have question about coilover or spring before i buy them, can you put these on without aftermarket shock?, then how long can i expect to drive with this without breaking my oem shock?

another quetion is, if you get full coilover and shock, how long does it last?...

i'm sorry , i dont know much about suspension, please help !!!...

stock shocks won't last very long on a lowered car. if i were u i would buy some good shocks before i put them on. taking the spring/strut off isn't hard, but u would save yourself some time by doing it all at once.

yea..u can put em on w/o aftermaket shock..but like that dood saidl..dotn last very long..depending on the drop..what kinda coils/springs u bought..about 2-3 months..if u get springs tho..they'll last alot longer..and if u get a full setup..if u get a GOOD setup..usually that'll last u for life..cuz they come w/ a lifetime guarantee..but jus make sure u read between the fine lines before u buy anything
