with a lowered car, good aftermarket shocks would be preferrable.
with the lowered height, the stock shocks will wear out sooner.

If you can afford it, adjustable shocks is the way to go!

Also wouldn't recommend stock shocks for a lowered vehicle. Save the money and get a good set of quality aftermarket shocks/struts.
