Get the Eibach Pro-Kit springs. Approx 1.4" drop. Eibach.

I would recommend changing shocks at the same time. Get the Tokico blues, Koni yellows, or the KYB AGXs.

I would listen to Duster...I just lowered my car 1.5" with the Neuspeed Sports and I also put in the KYB AGX...I love this combo...not too low, but removes all of the ugly gap above the wheels. I would definately do both springs and shocks at the same time though...probably save you on labour costs because you will need shocks EVENTUALLY.
