Thanks for the help guys. I just wanted to drop my car alittle bit with springs and not decrease the performance of the car since I cant afford coilovers right now. Any suggestions?

I have a set of H&R. I wonder if they're excellent or not.

So by reading this I gather that you would be able to put on Koni Yellows on their lowest settings with stock springs and expect to get a 1/2 inch drop. So if this compresses the stock spring will it bounce a lot more? I am trying to get a drop myself and was hoping to accomplish this without haveing to replace the stock springs.

I'm running KG/MM race springs on stock shocks.... I bought the car like that and have only ridden in stock cars. My car is MUCH stiffer and lower 1.5" or so. It doesn't seem to hop too much, and there is travel on the stock shocks but not all that much.

I don't find the ride too rough, except when I'm tired

Here's my drop.....

I wouldn't want to go lower, or you'll scrape EVERYWHERE!
