I hated the stock shoes so that was the first thing to go... Spring or coils?

Ive never lowered any of my cars before, im always concerned about ****ing up the ride... I did buy it for luxury after all. But im already on the sport suspension, how much more will my ride stiffen after coils? Also what are some make & model i should look into?

definitely go coils. springs are cool for now but if you end up going coils later, it was a waste of money to get springs now

Your only issue now will be springs have one setting. If the drop isnt enough then what? Should see about swapping for coils man. Ride quality is barely affected depending upon you. Springs are like a quick solution to becoming a tad lower. Like Bob i learned the hard way and switched as well.
