Default OME N196 / N198 Shocks on stock height JK

I bought an OME HD lift for my 08' JKU Rubicon. I've changed my mind about lifting it that high and would just like to get a set of 255/80R17 BF's. Would I be able to install the shocks but keep the stock springs on?

I've also thought about possibly trading my HD springs (616 & 618's) for a set of the stock/light duty springs but I'm not sure how it will look with the 255/80R17 tires. (If anyone knows of someone with this combo, please let me know if theres a picture out there) Thanks.

I'll keep an eye out for that combo. Love the tire size on Our 2door. Have you looked into keeping the HD coils and shocks and go with a 285/75/17 BFG?
