i just want to give it a better stance, and improve the handling a little bit. so springs is the way im going to go... nothing to expensive as im currently going to school...
does anyone by chance have a pic of what a 1" lower, 1.5" lower, 2" lower, and 2.5" lower looks like? im trying to see which ones looks the best and i cant seem to find a website anywhere that has pics lol |

just go for about a 1.5 lower. its not so low that you scrape every leaf on the road, but it looks good and it lowers the center of gravity and firms up the handling a decent amount. and as far as cheap, springs arent necessarily cheap, but you do pay for quality. been through the rounds with cheap springs and i definitely wish id spent the money and gotten the quality pieces.
save up and buy the right parts.

I have the eibach pro kit springs that are 1.5 font and 1 rear which looks nice. And then my friend has the H&R Race Springs that are a little lower at 1.6 front and 1.3 rear. Both are reasonable ride heights for a DD and cost around 230 on tirerack.com.

alrightyy, thanks anyways man! i decided to go with a 2" lower in the front, 1.6" lower in the back... my buddy that owns a car shop got me a GREAT deal on a set of springs, but he didn't have any thing that lowered it less then that

I have never seen a set of springs that drop that low unless they are coilovers and then they should be adjustable. What brand are they? But don't go cheap or you will be sorry. Also if you go as low as you say you will probably have a problem getting the alignment in spec without some aftermarket parts. And don't forget you are going to need new struts also.
