It runs fine with the stock shocks. I didn't notice too much of a difference in driving. I have had mine on since 2011 and have had built up a lot of miles on it....Not sure if its like 20k miles or so but somewhere around there I'd imagine.

Btw, I have Micro Image lowering springs with the oem stock shocks in my picture. Just wanted to clarify lol.

I've been told by a few people though not to run oem shocks with lowering springs due to the fact that it'll wear out the shocks even faster. About a year after installation on my springs I can hear something in my rear suspension creaking so I know its been LONG afterdue on replacing my oem shocks with some aftermarket ones that are better suited for the lowering springs. So if you plan to run it with stock shocks, just be sure to know that somewhere down the road you'll need to replace your shocks so might as well buy the shocks now and not have to wait till later.
