Unhappy stock shocks

im new to modifying vehicles and i dont think i will be any good at it, but could someone please tell me if you get springs do you have to get shocks and struts also or will the factory equipment surfice, i am looking to get neuspeed race springs for my 2k3 civic coupe but i just dont understand if i will have to replace the shocks and struts also, i do planning on going with an 18inch rim with 215/40/18 rubber so i want to do it right the first time but i am a little confused, i try to read some of the threads on here to get a better idea but alot of you guys have so much knowledge the convo goes right over my head, im sure im not the only one so if someone could break it down for a dummy like me i'd appreciate it . thanks . btw my first mod was leather interior from autoleathers.com check them out, it looks sweet

I have the Nuespeed race springs on my coupe on stock shocks, and let me tell you, the car rides like crap. The shocks will last for a few months or so, but after that, you'll be bouncing everywehrre.
