So im kind of on a tight budget right now and this is the only setup that looks reasonable in price. I need a couple things answered.

This is just like an adjustable spring right? it does not come with new shocks/struts like the teins?

How long will my stock shocks last with these after it's lowered?

And, I will be on 18x8.0, what is a good drop to be looking at?

i was looking at 1.4 in the front and 1.8 in the back.

Any help is much appreciated.

GC doesn't come with struts/shocks, just spring ans sleeve. You should be Ok with 18's since you can adjust the ride height. I'm on GC coilovers with stock shocks and I have no problems. I had 18's a while back until I went with 17's.

Just buy new shocks while you're at it. The labor will be simplified, don't cheap out.

I would just wait and save up for good quality. if you cheap out now and don't upgrade your shocks, you will have a crappy ride ahead of you.
