if you're not that familiar with suspension setups and different spring rates, more or less matching the two, try to look for a strut/spring combo that are manufactured to match with similar dampening settings, but it might run you a little more than 500 though.

I believe s-techs were designed so that they could be used with the stock shocks... people here seem to prefer Tokico HP's, though...
