Lowering springs worth it with stock shocks? Well search didn't turn up what i was looking for. I don't know a whole lot about suspensions but i do know the majority of people say the ride quality will be compromised if you use lowering springs with the stock shocks. I want a lower stance for my car but can't afford new shocks right now, would it be worth it to just get lowering springs or should I wait and just do springs and shocks at the same time sometime down the road? All input is appreciated, thanks.

I got some DMS springs for christmas, and was planning to put them on with stock shocks and some lca's. From what i've gathered springs with stock shocks will just be a little stiffer, but the shocks wear out really fast once you put the springs on. I'm just waiting for a set of KYB AGX's to put mine on. I figure might as well do it then.
