I just bought a '96 Se and want to lower it either via coilovers or springs (prolly springs, I am a poor college student) about 2 inches. My question is do I need to replace the shocks as well to handle the lowered springs. The front ones were just replaced so I don't really wanna pay for a new set. Your advice is appreciated. Thanks

If you're going for 2 inches your shocks will probably wear out fast. Try Maxspeed springs, they work with stock shocks.

 

Don't go lowball on aftermarket stuff. Go the extra nickel, and you'll never be disappointed. I would always get stiffer struts to handle stiffer springs, unless you like to bounce. And don't forget to have an alignment done...
