It really depends on what you want. How much of a drop are you looking for? Do you want it to ride similar to stock or do you not mind a stiffer ride?

i want it to ride similar to stock. but i wouldnt mind if its a lil stiffer. I still wanna keep it lowered.. about 1in-1.25in. If i go any lower i wont be able to work on it myself. my dad and i already have to use to jacks to jack it up when we change the oil.

of course you need to use a jack to change the oil! lol

as far as springs I have the eibach's and love em...a little bit of a pita to install but very managable to do on your own (hey, if i can do it then anyone can!)

the ride is similar to stock and the car has a much cleaner look now
