You cant lower it at all? Some kits only lower .5in

If you replace the shocks with adjustables you can get them stiffer. It would depend on the valving and im not really sure how to check for that.

This is like the 5th thread asking the same questions over and over again...

The Bilsteins are great if you don't want an adjustable setup. I run them and love them. You can run them with stock springs. Lowering springs do make the ride stiffer but it keeps it from bottoming out since it's lower. I have the Cervini kit on my car and it's probably the lowest bumper out for our cars. I was running it with a Steeda 1" drop and everyone said I was going to scrap on everything....my springs were stiff enough that the car bounced less and scraped only a handful of times.

You can always get springs that don't drop the car very much so it'll look and handle better and if it's too low just get taller tires.
