Default Tein S Techs on stock shocks

Is this a good or bad idea? I've just ordered the S Tech springs and i'm planning on keeping the stock shocks, have there been any issues with doing this?

Nope. I never had any problems with it. The only problem you might face in the future is the shocks dieing sooner than expected. When that happens buy new shocks.

i used to have KYB + Tein S = so comfortable. then moved to HKS coilover and never look back, it's as comfortable as kyb+tein s IMO
