How low can I go... before...

Before I have to start modifying the stock suspension?? Like adjustable control arms, ball joints,etc. I want to lower it a little and give it some sportier handling... but I just finished replacing all my worn out ball joints, bushings, upper control arms, etc. HELP!!!! lol

I'm thinkin H&R's and KYB AGX's... eh??? I Don't want to chew tires up dammit!!

you can get away with the H&R sports without anything more than an alignment. I personally would look into a better shock like Koni or Bilstein though

Unless you live in a climate that sees snow often or a area that uses a lot of sand and salt. They can make the adjustability useless after 1 winter

What about the Eibach 4041.780 Pro-System Suspension Kit? I live in New York and snow is an issue. I don't want to go too low because of the sometimes rough roads but maybe one finger gap all around? Will the eibach kit give me enough stiffness to handle the roads?
