idk some ppl like it but my header gets crunched bein that low so i need a little more space up front and i want coils, but your stock set-up is pretty old so anything could be an improvement. youll need to adjust your camber too..

Your ride quality will be gone. OEM specs almost always is the most comfortable. If you want pure handling, put the new springs in with some good shocks.

If you trhow on shorter springs with stock shocks then you should expect bounce. Tociko shocks would sure up the ride a great deal.

Yeah any car will bounce with stock/ worn shocks regardless of the spring. Tokicos are a good name.
