I lowered my car and I have the kyb agx 8 position shocks and the 4 position struts. THERE GREAT. I love them. Get caster camber plates for the front. Then get traction bars and upper adjustable control arms You will not regret it. If you wanto get crazy like me get the energy suspension master poly urithane bushing kit too...

hardly......unless your using coil overs and tubular a-arms it won't handle to much better than stock..unless rims size is increased to a 17" rims which will make the brakes almost non existent. coil overs give you great flexibility
