lowering question

my stock shocks are just about to wear out and im planning on getting new ones this summer. my car hasnt been dropped and i wanna know what the best combination of struts and springs would give me a good drop on the car and is also affordable. im riding stock wheels rite now but am planning on getting 18s sometime soon. i've looked on the stickies and found some information but would still like to get more people's opinions.
thanx!

check with the suspension stickies. TOns of pictures to show what different drops look like.

there is also tons of information regarding the ride quality.

I run kyb agx and h&r springs. Sporty without being harsh imo.

In my opinion, READ & SEARCH. You need to do your own homework and find out which combination is best for YOU. We are not the ones driving your car everyday and we are not the ones who are dishing out $$ for it. I am currently running stock because I think that there is no reason to spend the $ right now while my setup is perfectly fine. I do not intend to sound harsh, but do what you want...it is your car.

personnaly, go coil overs ( and not sleeve kits ).. reason why, you can adjust the height to your liking... also, get coil overs with adjustable shocks... so you can adjust the ride comfort to your liking as well..

yes, it may be a little pricier, but, you win on the long run..
