you'll go an inch and just want more. if your serious about lowering it go with adjustable coilovers so you can decide once you actually see how low an inch goes and if you want more.

yeah eibach are great progressive rate springs. the prokit will drop 1 inch, sportline is i think 1.8 inch. dont forget to change the shocks too with some aftermarkets that are rated for lowered car. and also a camber kit so the shop can set the alignment properly.
