Poor condition cosmetically (common) or leaking (not common)? If its just cosmetics, let them soak in evaporust for a few days then repaint. I find they generally last 200K miles or more without mechanically failing although obviously the gas does escape by then.
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.
