Question about all the components of doing a drop...

so i have 205' size tires on my 17s... and i want to do a drop... i know i need to get a camber kit... but i do not want to have to buy new shocks and struts as well... would these blow out if i threw some goldlines on there? would i be wasting my money by buying regular springs or coilovers, or should i save for the next year and buy some tein coilovers? which would be the cheapest/best route to go? if i bought the camber kit and springs up front... is there any estimation on how long before i would have to buy new shocks and struts? i tried to do a search but my computer is so ghetto and slow it wasn't working with me well... thank you for your time

well stock struts can blow in day after you put springs on. it really depends on your driving habits,road conditions.etc.. personally save up and buy fullcoilovers. do it right at first place

haha- cheap and right probably shouldnt be used in the same sentence.

Save up and do it right, I'd rather do it right the first time. Thats why my Tein SS get installed tomorrow!! WOOT WOOT!
