Default Suspension Q

Was wondering if the Tein S-Tech springs will blow out the shocks on a stock S2000? Any response would be appreciated, Thanks.

Lowering springs on stock shocks will prematurely wear them out faster. Its just a matter of how low and how hard they are driven.

I believe they only lower it 1" all around, I just dont want to put a set of springs on then suddenly have to change the shocks.

Could be anywhere from 6 months to a year and a half, depend on how you drive and condition of the road(~10k-30k respectively). But, stock shox will, definitely, go one day.
