It all depends on your driving and the road quality. Take it easy and you should be ok.

Too high of a spring rate will definitely blow out the stock dampers. I personally blew mine out the day of install hehehe. But I had planned on upgrading anyway and proper dampers (Koni's) were already on the way.

What brand/model did you get? I need some KYB AGX's for my daily driver.
