Default need springs

hey i have 205/40/17 tires, kyb agx adjustable shocks and stock springs, i wouldnt mind lowering the car, but not more than an inch
most of the lowering springs drop the car around 2", are there any that drop it only an inch, or do i have to use spacers
my other question is will the ride be stif since i have low profiles, maybe just stick to original height and buy aftermarket springs ?

coil over springs r your best shot.and the ride will be stiff anyway since u are using low profile tires..and i bet it bounces right now with stock suspension

H&R OEM springs lower your car about .75", and Tein High Tech springs lower your car just over an inch 1.1-1.3". Both are great springs and offer a great ride (friend has H&R OEM springs) and I guarantee you will not be disappointed if this is the height you are going for. However your 17" rims have thin side walls so they will not help with ride quality no matter what height your car is at. I would ditch the 17's get some 15's and slam your car.
