How low do you want to go? Dont forget if you go like towards 1.8(I always hear) or lower you need to adjust your camber.

They wont settle all that much, it's usually the shitty springs that start to sag but i'm guessing around 1/8"-1/4" is what you could expect. If you want something a little lower, i would either go with Ground Control coils, or Skunk2's for a little stiffer ride. If you dont want either of those, Neuspeed Race springs would work also, but it would pretty much be slammed.

Get Ground Controls. Or Skunk2's but only if you want to have a shitty ride. Ground Controls are your best bet
