you're probably still going to have some ground clearance with 18" rims. try going for Eibach Sportlines, they drop a little lower than S-Techs

I have S-Techs and KYB's (which are OE replacements). you can look in my profile for pictures, if you want more pictures let me know and I'll dig them out. smile.gif

Yes they are ok to put on oem shocks but the bottom line is that you will eventually have to replace your oem shocks. So you might as well put them on at the same time. The ride will be a lil bouncier with the oems as opposed to the kyb (oem replacement). That is just my .02
