   Hi.
   
   I know its good to have uprated shocks and dampers...
   
   But i have no intension on track time etc.
   
   Am looking to buy the apex 50mm kit but wondering if its definatly worth getting the shocks etc since i could save my self some ££.
   
   Thoughts?

   handling and suspension performance matter on the road as well. Personally i'd always match springs and dampers on anything over 25mm drop

   If anything dampers are more important from a road car as you have more suspension travel and pothole/bricks and patchy roads to deal with
