I couldnt be happier with the progressive rate springs ability to provide comfort, and performance when needed.

Really, any progressive rate spring set will do wonders for looks and performance. I love my Eibach pro-kit, but I wouldnt hesitate to put H&R springs on. Granted my experience with lowering springs is solely with an IRS out back. I only used linear rate springs when I had my stick axle.

If you want more performance that comfort look for linear rate spring like H&R race springs. Those things in conjunction with a few other suspension mods will crispen up your turning quite nice.

I would just do the shocks/struts, springs, and CC plates all at once and be done with it personally. I hate having to take things apart more than necessary. Even if you have bad tires already, a bad alignment will make them much worse that much quicker.

I would recommend at least CC plates and a good alignment.

If you dont go any lower than a pro-kit type spring with the isos pulled you dont need any cc plates.

I would however to the shock/struts at the same time.
