Oh wise ones, I need your advice.

First thing is first. I'm new to the car world. The past 7 years of my life I have owned Jeeps.

I've been a 4x4 guy growing up but with a new job, a new paycheck, i decided with was time for a new ride.

I landed on a 2007 TL-S. She's stock and I can't handle it. I've never had a car stay stock this long. (3 months).

So, while I still can't decide on wheel/tire combo...I am also looking to put some suspension on the car.

With 4x4, I wanted bigger and bigger all the time. I couldn't care less about how it rode on the road.

With the TL, I feel differently. I like the way it rides right now as far as how it handles itself on various road surfaces but I want it to sit lower.

Basically, I'm looking for an 1" - 1.5" drop with improved cornering handling and as little sacrifice in ride quality as possible.

I don't want to spend the $$$ for coilovers so if one or all of you could put your in on the subject and give some pros and cons about the various drop springs/shock combos available it would be much appreciated.

Better yet, if you could redo your suspension again...What would you go with? Let me learn from you.

If you are just lookin for a 1 to 1.5 drop I'd say either the Eibach kit, H&R Sports, or the Tein H-techs would work. You could even do the comptech springs also.
