The choice of lowering spring is also dictated by how much lowering you want done. Some lower more than others. How much lowering are you looking for?

What's your experience level with driving a lowered car?

Are you using this car as a daily driver or just weekend?



Are you fairly new to cars (mechanically), the car scene (getting aftermarket parts), or both?

I am asking these probing questions to get the context right, I want to make sure you understand what you are getting into before doing this.
Wierdly, if you get coilovers, you get spring and damper matched to each other with fully adjustable ride height to get you to exactly where you want to be!

And if you get adjustable arms you can even set your alignment to what you want, including correcting toe and camber so you can fit awesome wheels and avoid tire killing problems

You could even say spending more up front avoids alot of problems

folks come here asking about fixing the **** they screwed up going cheap

nobody ever comes here saying they regret doing it right and not having problems
JARblue, ZontheRocks and babyzilla like this.
