Standard dampers question and opinions needed

[scarpicus]

As some of you may know i have ordered koni coilovers but have been told that they won't be here until end of august at the earliest...
So i wanted to know if it would be a good or bad idea if i should just cancle order and put the stock dampers back on my car what had covered only about 22000 miles in about 3 and a half yrs and get eibach sport lines springs which are quite cheap.
as my main objective with getting coils was just to lower car with a decent ride.

my stock dampers have been sitting in my shed since i had koni fsd and pro-kit installed about 7 or 8 months ago maybe more but i have just checked them by pushing them down which needs quite at bit of force and the rods slowly come back up so does that mean they are ok....

How is the ride with that setup?

plus would appreciate any pics...

Having only done 22k miles and also needing lots of force, they should be fine, but you could have them checked on a bench by a local trusted garage.

If you are only wishing to achieve a lower stance then I see no reason to justify spending on coilovers.
