Suspension/Lowering question

I'm looking at a set of eibach sportline springs. around 200$usd .

Is it recommended that if you lower your car, to replace the struts as well to compensate with better dampening ?

I want it to look good, but I don't want the ride to go to shit.

Yes, it is recommended but unfortunately there aren't any aftermarket shocks/struts available for the Matrix...yet. A few companies are rumored to be in the R&D stage.

I've had the Hotchkis springs on now for about 10 mths. Shocks are holding up.
