don't get the lowering springs.. I think you want some Tein Basics.. I think they go new for around 700-900. Otherwise I think agx's w/ ground control seem to be popular..

I personally have the tein ss, and they kick butt on a DD, if you don't mind having a stiff "riding on rails" type of feel. Otherwise Tein basics might be your best bet.

Lowering springs are pretty much hated around here unless they are roadmagnets or hyperco (supposedly the same thing?) You should check out shawnb's suspension sticky (surprised he isn't here telling you to do the same)

I've got AGX's w/road magnets and 195/60/15. The arrangement lowers it a bit and the wheels fit the wheelwells nicely.....Mike

sorry i forgot mention i was already dropped on sportlines i got good deal on them because i needed to remove the ebay coilovers off that came on the car when i bought it. my shocks are pretty much gone although the switch from those ebay coilovers to the springs is a night and day difference in itself. now some suggestd getting lifetime warrenty autozone shock/struts or will i need something more like agx's?
