Question suspension q&a

Ok, I want a sporty suspension more for street driving. Nothing to over the top. Wanted to know some sugestions on lowering springs, maybe new struts if needed, but I don't want to much of a drop. I have 18's so rubbing issues may come into play I don't know. I'm going to get those lightweight control arms to lose some unsrung weight from the 18's and lightweight lateral links too. Also will be getting rear sway bar setup to make a little more sporty, so definatly some suggestions would be great. thanks, Jerry

If you don't want too much of a drop, get some STI pinks.
