Stock springs and aftermarket shocks compatibility?

Hi all,
I'm still pretty new to 4WDing and I know little about the technical side of everything and need some advice.

I am planning to replace the suspension on my '09 Nissan X-Trail. I have found the shocks that I want (gas magnums from Monroe) with a larger bore than the stock to handle the corrugated roads I travel on.

My question is about the springs. Should I also replace the stock springs? I don't have a whole lot of money to spare, but I'm willing to fork out just a bit more for new springs if that's what I need.

What are the implications of keeping the stock springs and just getting new shocks? Is it doable?

Thanks,
Holly
