No you do not have to at all! As a matter of fact GR-2s work BEST with factory springs!

No prob, I'm glad to see somebody who appreciates stock springs! (Nothing you ever get will ride as soft)

you dont have to change your springs, but if you were planning on dropping the car, you would be best off switching them out at the sametime, you'll save money for the labor
