Question Suspension Quustion!!!!

Hi~ guys....
I'm now waiting for my new spring, Tanabe nf 210.
I just gonna replace this spring just maintaining stock shocks.
(I already put Ronzon inspyre 18" on my car)
Is there any problems can be happen after changing the srping?
Really confusing for this problem cause, some people said the shock
will be off soon or some people said it will be ok.
Do i have to invest another things like camber and shock??
Let me know the clear question about it!!!
Thanks!!!

I would say upgrade you shocks while springs are going on just to save on installation. Couple of my friends have the tein/H&R springs but stock shocks and ride is not that great somteimes way to bouncy.
Camber kit is helpful in most cases but if the drop isnt that much i dont think its really worth it.

if there are a lot of miles on the stock shocks, you should just replace them at the same time-even if they are with new stock shocks, cause you'll have to do it sooner or later

i would think if you drive in the city, as your location insists, your shocks will wear out quicker. at 60,000 they are probably less that half life left. wont hurt to change them if your putting new springs in too

i have 53K on mine but its 100 miles of smooth highway every day and mine are fine
