Question Tokico D-Spec and Skunk2???

OK, I just bought some Skunk2 Coilovers and I think I'm about to buy the new Tokico D-Specs and I was wondering if the two would work with each other. I heard that my stock shocks would blow if I put the Coilovers on... Is that true? Would this set up (D-Specs and Skunk2), keep my ride low and smooth?? THANKS

Yes stock shocks will blow. Mine blew pretty fast with Eibach sportlines. Get D-specs or konis.

jttegx has a spectacular aura aboutjttegx has a spectacular aura about
i have skunk2 coilovers w/ stock shocks. riding on them for a year and not blown. i avoid major dips, bumps, potholes, etc and drive pretty damn careful everywhere i go.

couple members here tried to install kyb shocks with their skunk2 coilovers and they wouldnt fit in since the skunk2 coilover is pretty slim/narrow. i talked to a personally mechanic and said skunk2 coilovers were more meant to go with stock shocks then aftermarket. i guess thats there design?

also, shocks can blow at any time, its just your habits of driving. as for tokico d-spec fitting with skunk2 coilovers, i would doubt it but what do i know, i never tried it.
