look into a spring/shock/coilover combo, dont use your stock shocks.

the stock shocks werent ment for any drop. ofcourse the lower you go the more you have to worry about blowing the shocks. lots of members here including myself ride around with just lowering springs on the stock shock combo. its only a matter of time i guess, im just pretty careful about bumps and dips and all kinds of stuff.

98% of the time its just me in my car. if you carry around a family or lots of people often i'd suggest getting coilovers or aftermarket shocks to go with your lowering springs. but IMO if i had to haul around a family in my sedan, i would have went with the HFP kit.

im pretty sure that the Sedan uses the same springs as the coupe. some good brands would be Comptech, Eibach, Tein, Neuspeed...
