Eibachs are one of the best lowering springs, i'm not 100% sure they made them for 2nd gens though, they might. K-sport are pretty good too but again not sure if they were made for 2nd gens

I installed the ST springs and swaybar kit f/r on my 90 and it's seems smooth as hell on good highway but a little bouncey on bad roads with KYB GR-2s but overall really nice....
