If you don't want to spend a lot of money, you can lower the car for realativley cheap, but it will be
cheap if you do it like that. Like, you can buy just the springs, but without the shocks the car is going to ride like shit.. Bouncy, and it won't handle well. But lots of people do it. If you lower it and don't get a camber kit, you'll wear through tires like crazy.. Last year I wore through a set of brand new Kuhmo tires in about 6,000kms.. They didn't even last me 3 months.. Just due to the fact that my alinment is so out because I wouldn't buy the proper equipment to do it right. I've wore through so many sets of tires due to bad camber, and it cost me a shit load more money than just doing it right in the first place, but I guess thats how some people need to learn. The hard way.
