I was in the same boat as you. I did my search and decided to go with Espelirs. Do a search on "Espelir" and read up on what everyone has said about them.

I am going to do the OEM Fromt Lip & I think 1" will be perfect, looks slightly lower the stock, especially with stock wheels, besides I hear you will compromise some of the handling with just "slamming" the car with springs only

espelir's are pretty bad a$$, my two choices were espelir or skunk2, they both got nice drops, and have good feedback. But I chose skunk2 because the drop is slighty lower. But my car def. rides like stock if not better, a tiny bit more oversteer, feels like its from the back tho.

I love it!, I do the coolest U-turns in Miami..lol

If you are sticking with OEM shocks I would get Eibach or Swift. Like I said earlier, these are only a 1" drop and I posted a picture of my car to illustrate this.

If you want to be slammed, Espelir is about a 2" drop. If you decide to go this route, I would also get Koni Yellows. After buying all of this though you could have spent the money on a used set of Bilstein PSS9. In fact there is a set for sale in the forums for $950.

Hope this helps

Because it would match my Swift front sway bar

Here is a quick review of Swift springs. Maxrev is a member on the forum, his website is very cool.
