Default Making my car lower without air suspension

I seen a thread and a guy said he made his car lower without the air, does anyone know how much it costs and where do they usually do stuff like this.
Thanks

Deflate your tires, you should be able to get a bit lower if your on stock tires.

cut springs, coilovers, smaller wheels, springs + shocks combo...it's not rocket science man.

or you can be creative by taking out springs, taking out wheels, installing blown shocks...the possibilities are endless

take the whole shock assembly off and drive it to a sloped parking dip and park there its the lowest you can get from the suspension and ground effects

It's sad to see people somewhat rude. Everyone starts somewhere. Although, the people that seriously responded by suggesting you use the search feature are correct. You'll find many threads on the subject. Good luck.
