S8 springs on stock shocks will probably result in stock ride height as the spring perch sits quite a lot higher. It'll also ride like a bouncy castle as the stock shocks aren't damped enough to control S8 springs.

They are rustad yes and i plan on repainting them if I end up using them but what I’m more concerned about is the fact that they are really slow to rebound when compressed. Comparing to my new bilstein shocks on the b5.
