NOT WITH STOCKS MAN, go get yourself a nice set of Aftermarket Struts...From everything being said, you'll probably blow your stock struts in no time, EVEN FOR mild drops

Would have to disagree. I used H-Techs on my stock struts for over a year. I will say that ride wasn't that great but I never blew my struts out. I would say to get aftermarket struts if you've got the loot but you can push these springs on stock struts with no problems.

EDIT: That is if your streets aren't **** either.

It's best not to use H-techs at all, unless you like bottoming out and sloppy handling.
