Used shocks w/ new springs?

I'm thinking about buying these Koni shocks that have been used for about 10k miles at stock ride height, but I want to use them with some DMS springs. I've heard that if a shock is broken in at a specific ride height, it won't work correctly if you permanently alter the ride height. Anybody know anything about this? Thanks!

Brewha863,
Contact Koni to see what they say.
I have emailed them and they are very knowledgable (they should be!) and they are very prompt with answering your email.
Go to their website and you will find the email address.
Let me know what they said. And if you are still intersted let me know.
Thanks, cdb95z28
