Alright cool. Will my shocks blow if I don't? (don't want that to happen on me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> )

they're not going to blow up.. they just can't produce enough resisting force to properly dampen the springs

not really bumpy.. yes, the ride will get harsher over the bumps that you normally drive on.. just because you'll have less spring travel and more agressive spring rates..

it most likely means that your car will be bouncy/floaty feeling...
