Depends on how low you want to go?

Depends on how low and the spring rate you want.

You need to consider your location. The last thing you want is to go so low that you drag just about every place you go.

I would say either do sportlines or h&rs super sports. But I agree with ninja. it really depends on your roads.

I agree on the road thing, but if you ever plan on doing more mods, I'd look into doing a coilover kit, instead of spending money on springs, and then doing shocks/struts later. it will give you a better ride quality.

also, in tucson, even though the car is a daily driver, I usually only drive it places where I know the speed bumps or whatever aren't high enough to scrape on
