Eibach Pro-kit w/ stock struts/shocks...

Hey guys

I'm running Eibach Pro-kit springs (1" drop) w/ stock struts/shocks...

Do you think the stock shocks would blow... even if i drove "normally".. meaning not taking it highspeeds on mountain roads like i did on my celica =D

Also, if it is too risky to be running these springs w/ stock struts... anyone else w/ eiback pro-kit springs w/ aftermarket shocks?? If so, what kind of shocks do you guys prefer i should get. Thanks!

i have the pro kit and immediately the shocks in the rear blew and i believe i have bad struts in the front too...your best bet is to get an upgrade shock/strut along with the springs.

I'm running the Pro-Kit w/Tokico Blues and really like the ride. Stiffer than stock, but not jarring or anything. Actually, I would still call it pretty plush over bumps, but stiff when it should be (body roll, etc). KYB AGX shocks might be a better choice though, as they are adjustable and can be found for ~$350 shipped. I believe Tokicos end up costing around $300 shipped.
