The drop on Tein springs are fine on the stock struts. No issues. Done alot of them never had a problem.

YOu always take the risk of weakening your shocks over time regardless of the drop.

i installed 1.5 drop springs on stock struts, and blew them in 2 mos, mind u they already had 80,000 miles on them, but still, u take the chance because ur putting more stress on them than is necessary, save time, money, and trouble. dont get discouraged tho, u can still do it, just be conscious, uve been warned.... seriously tho, its worth it, suspension is so much fun, its been one of my favorite upgrades

Re: need some help..!!!
 
that would be the best thing to do, but if ur gonna do it anyway, def get camber kits front and rear, u can screw up expensive tires really quick if u dont, even with only a 1.5 drop, ull still have to get an allignment, and there is no factory rear camber adjusment on our cars, so save the hassle, plus its easier to just install everything all at once. basically u just need springs and camber kit
