Default lowering springs help?!?

ok i have a 2008 gt with 20's, i want to lower it about 1.5" all the way around, im not concerned with the ride quality as much or the performance (as long as it doesnt go to sh*t) the roads around here are all pretty new and really nice/fun to drive on, so potholes and stuff dont exist around here yet...i just ebayed some and found a couple really cheap ones, wondering if anybody has them or heard of them?

and like i said handling isnt i big deal cause its just a cruiser and straight line shots when i do race, and i need it lowered for shows...i just dont want to spend that much money on shocks/struts and all that, so suggestions happily accepted thank you

I installed the eibach pro-kit and love the stance. The ride isn't too bad. I didn't do shocks or anything.I did install the camber bolts for the alignment though.

I have steeda springs and tokico shocks. I am not sure how they would be without the shocks but I do like the way they ride and perform. The look is awesome, I would recomend checking them out.

If your gonna lower the car use a brand name spring. Those ebay specials are horrible, the spring rate is screwed up. But if you dont wanna spend the money on eibach. Then buy the Ford Racing springs. $159 for them. Same as Eibach and nice drop. Here link.
