Default Suspension Combo

I did a little search, but couldn't find any info about what i wanted, so here we go.

Im interested in lowering my ej8 in the near future i hope, and im looking for advice. I don't have a lot of money, but I don't wana cheap out on the most important mods either.

I calculated that for around $450 i can get tokico blues and eibach sportlines

For around $580 i can get kyb agx and sportlines

So is the 130 bucks more worth it? Also can you recommend me some other shock/spring combos.


The car is a daily driver ej8, and I don't want a too low drop. I don't want bouncy ride either. I want a good ride for DD.

Edit: If I get a 1.8 inch or so drop, will I scrape and have trouble going over speedbumps and driveways?


Thanks

Koni's are excellent shocks, but it doesn't sound like you will need them. AGX's will work fine.
