I recommend no more than a 1.5" drop as the suspension geometry begins to worsen after this point, IMO. Sounds like you may be running Sportlines or something that is a 2" drop.

I bought my springs off ebay for like 70 bucks and that was two years ago. Forgot what brand or the seller but I've put about 18,000 miles on the car with no issues yet (man I shouldn't have said that).

Were they yellow Max Speed springs??
I bought mine from eBay almost a year and a half ago for that price, and I just got the backs on and the fronts will go on in the next few weeks when the weather get's better.
