Guys, bumping a semi-old thread to save starting a new one.

I just got Whiteline Flat-outs fitted to my 06. Cars sitting nicely and the ride is still as good as stock. But im a little concerned about the "crashing" noises im getting over some bumps.
So does anyone think it would be beneficial to upgrade the shocks as well to solve this?

Im going to give Wilkinson's a call on Monday as i have to ask them something so will ask about this too, but thought i'd get the opinions of you knowledgable folk before i do cos it wouldnt suprise me if they jsut say i should to get themselves a buck.

Cheers,
Blair.

PS: the crashing may be normal, i just get paranoid after every mod i do to my car
