If you're lowering it on stock struts and aftermarket lowering springs, your stock struts will receive more wear than they would with stock springs.
This doesn't necessarily mean you will blow them within 2k miles though, tons of people have had lowering springs for a long time without any issues.

Never heard of them. I'd skip it. Too much work for unknown used stuff.
