If one wants to lower standard ride height by about 30mm, would standard front and rear shocks suffice?

Or

Would it be imperative for one to fit aftermarket dampers/shock absorbers?

Std is fine.

I personally would use standard dampers up to about 25mm. They will be fine lower up to a point but I think there's not a lot of damper movement with the bumpstops in place to get a great ride quality. Lower than 30mm really needs shortened shocks.
