I read the following statement in the FAQ regarding the best way to lower your car an inch. I read that one just installs the Eibach springs and all is well but then I read this:
"I feel you improve looks by lowering the car with springs, but you kill performance...you don't get a much firmer ride, but you will get a bouncier ride, since the OEM struts are too soft to "keep up" with the stiffer/lower springs. In order to improve handling, lower the car with struts and keep your OEM springs."
Struts? So my 2003 can be lowered an inch (that's all I want) with the OEM struts?
I'm basically asking what would be the most "cost-effective" way to lower my car an inch and not lose handling performance?
