you have to replace the shocks if you use lowering springs with rates higher than the stock shocks were intended for.

has nothign to do with the springs. and you're lucky if you get a year, let alone 3-4.

well eibach has a million mile warranty so you tell me... if you drop it more then 1.5 inches or so then it does effect stock shocks but i got the pro-kit and they should be good for awhile
