If you're not going to track the car, most people go with springs. How low are you looking to go? I have espilars on my car, they lower the car about 1.5 inches. I'm not quite sure how much the other springs drop you, but this has been covered a lot on this site. If you find that there are too many threads to search through, try some of the aftermarket sites and they will be able to tell you how much each set of springs will lower your car.

I would go with Espelir springs. They lower the car to a near perfect drop, it's a little stiffer, and handling is improved... if not then go with Buddy Club Race Spec coilovers....

Like Bill and everyone else said, you do not need coilovers. Springs will adequately fit the bill. You're going for looks regardless of what you may say otherwise. If you're max'ing out suspension on the streets, you're doing it wrong.
