1.75" or more NEEDS camber kits for proper alignment.

Well, I've read some of your comments on suspension when I was searching for info, so I'm glad you chimed in! I'm trying to make my ride nice again, but if I could lower it some without spending much more than it would cost me to do stock, that would be a bonus. I'm looking for the best handling bang for the buck, ya know? So, in your opinion, would the KYB GR-2's be OK with the H&R OE Sport Springs? Those are the ones that lower about .75".
I just looked up the Koni's at tirerack.com, $150ea! Way over my budget. I'm trying to spend no more than $400. That would get me the KYB's and the OE springs, and .75" lowering. Plus a MUCH better ride than I have right now.
The other setup that has caught my eye is the tokico strut/spring sets. $350 on ebay, 1.25 drop.
Not sure I really want to mess with a camber kit, so I guess I'm leaning toward the H&R's.
cheers
