2.5i lowering questions

I was just wondering what works and what should be avoided in lowering my 09 2.5i hatchy. If this has been posted (didn't see it sorry!) then just link me then please. Thank you.

Eibach Pro-Kit. I have them and love how they handle, ride and has a great stance. Plus, they're designed to work with our stock struts.

Here's my ride height

Aww man that is a nice drop! Thanks for the info, i heard horror stories of springs that dont work well with the stock struts... So this is good to hear. Thanks!

2.5i struts are a bit weaker than WRX struts. Pretty much everything is going to blow them. Luckily replacement struts can be had for pretty cheap.
