Re: new springs

Read the FAQ.

You need shocks and probably should have gotten coilovers to handle the subs. Go ahead and throw lowering springs and subs on your stock shocks and watch the rear sag and the car handle like ****.

Re: new springs

You need to decide what fits your needs, but you didn't do that when you automatically thought of buying springs. You mod the car to fit your needs, just don't slap parts on it because it is cool. Research, research, research.

Full coils allow you to adjust the rears to sit higher than the fronts to compensate for the subs in the trunk. If you are lowering just for looks, look into Megans. And don't forget a camber kit. Read the FAQ!!
