99 DX Suspension Upgrade

It's about time to upgrade my suspension. I've never done suspension work before so excuse me for being a noob. I have a 99 DX Hatch and just recently moved to Las Vegas so the roads are flat. I have 15" tires on, and want to lower it enough to where I can still drive it to the mountains without problems. Anyone have spring recommendations? Also is there anything else I should replace while I'm doing this job?

Re: 99 DX Suspension Upgrade

personally i like megan racing coilovers it will lower your car a few inches at most and will give you better stiffness. its just my personal opinion on shock/strut combinations. they are about 700 on ebay for all 4 and they are pretty simple to install just remember to get an alignment after your done.

U might want to start out with just a rear sway bar, its a big upgrade with dry cornering and not too much money.
