Default s-techs on stock everything

anyone ride with s techs on stock shocks/struts? Tein told me to go stock completely with their product.
My ride is not very comfortable at all, especially on the jagged freeways and bumpy streets. I don't want to replace shocks/struts unless they were blown. If they are blown what brand should i replace them with to still achieve the same drop height if not lower? Aside from being bouncy, how else can i tell if my shocks/struts are out? The bounciness is uncertain because im not sure if its the street thats bouncy or my car....

sounds like your shocks are WORN (not blown, i think the term BLOWN is overused and meaningless) and you need to tighten up your bushings and balljoints.

what car?

getting s techs will jsut lower your car and stiffen your ride just a bit. thats all theyre supposed to do. wont make your ride (comfort) any better.
