Lowering springs on stock shocks will = madd crap! The only springs I would think about running on stock shocks would be H&R OE. If I didn't care about the shocks then anything that would slam.

I had Tein S.Techs on my car. Advertised as 1.8f/1.7r. And I guess it gave me that. To the eye it looks like more of a 1.5 inch drop all the way around. When I put the B-series in, it dropped the front another 1/4" or so. It's comfortable, and serves the purpose.

I have them for sale if you are looking to pick some up. Only put MAYBE 6k miles on them.

My ride isn't harsh with stock shocks. But, everyone's opinion is different.
