Not sure which Bilstein shocks you're referring to but if they are stock ones you'll blow them out real quick

i kept the stock pads and had them installed so i never got to look :/ but i have like 3/4 a finger gap in the front and none in the rear.. thats why i couldnt even use spacers because it will rub towards the inside of the fender if i did... anyone know if a 10mm would be much diffrent from the 15mm i tried?

You're gonna be fine with the shocks. Mine are still ok, got the car 6 years ago, installed my lowering springs 1 year later. Shocks are still fine til now. It's been 5 years now since I put on the springs.
