your a street guy, back and fourth to work and what not right? you want a street ride, but also to be able to handle some turns and performance, right?
Spring:
go with eibach sport line springs, about a 2" drop, depending on application.
you could also go with Ground control coilovers which use eibach springs
Shock:
go with KYB AGX Adjustible shocks, these shocks have the ability to give you a nice stock ride back and fourth to work and with a very quick adjustment you can hit the tracks at any import show with out a hitch, and you'll car will perform great.
Price:
this is a very nice set up, it will cost you around $800-$900 including all alignment kits and depending on the spring you get.
decision:
its up to you, are you willing to spend a little cash and get a great ride and performance out of it, OR go cheap and jiggle your buns to work, your call, you pay for what you get!!!
