Default 2006 RSX Lowering

This is my first post here so be gentle. I recently purchased a 2006 RSX base with an automatic. I want to lower it so it does not look like an SUV. I have tried to read the recomendations here but need a little clarity. I want to lower it 1.5 inches. I have concluded that coil over is the way to go. Here is my issue. I am 5o years old and use the car commuting 200 miles a day mainly freeway miles. I need to know the best kit to go with for look, ride comfort, cornering type stability and drivability (I don't want to be beat to death). I also need to know what else I may need to do such as camber kits etc.

I appreciate your help. If I am in the wrong thread please accept my apologies and direct me to the right place.

Al

Just get some Tein S. Tech springs. They meet all criteria that you are looking for but with better quality than a sleeve type coilover and without the price tag of a one piece set-up. BTW Bump for grandpa's rockin' the RSX!! lol

Go for the A-spec suspension. OEM reliability/ ride quality FTW.
