ive heard people run their s techs on stock shocks for about a year before blowing them, dont quote me on that...
i suggest you just save up for shocks and switch them both out at the same time

Buy new shocks and do it all at once. If you get new shocks get KYB AGXs or Konis.

Most people will blow their stock shocks on S Techs in less than a year but a small percentage of people don't. Not worth the risk seeing as it takes no additional time if you're installing springs anyway.

Check the spring rate database, look for a spring with a medium drop and a low spring rate. A higher spring rate means the springs will be more stiff. FWIW: I have Tien h-tech springs, they are specifically designed to provide a modest drop (about 1.25") while mainaining a degree of comfort.
