dont bother... you'll go through all the trouble of swapping springs and eventually your shocks will blow. Not to mention until they do blow they'll ride ****ty because they're being compressed in specs they werent designed for.

EDIT*
**** **** **** **** ****

had s-techs for 7 months or so, drove MUCH better than stock sport suspension. I'd say go for it, but the shocks go out around 40k-60k miles or so on aftermarket springs
