Carrameow,

Unless your springs are seriously sagging, I wouldn't bother. The shocks, however, should be kept up. I drive so much I seem to get around to replacing the shockw when one starts wearing out and making noise. The car always feels better when I get around to it. It's tough to beat a set of Bilsteins all around.

Good luck,
