Lowering springs

If I want to lower my car, do I just need the lowering springs? I'm looking at either Eibach or Tenzo, but I didn't know if there were other parts I need or just the springs.

Re: Lowering springs

Tein S. Techs match up with stock shocks, and best part, they aren't too stiff, not too low or high, just right for DD. If you're looking to change your shocks and springs together, you're looking at around $600+. At which if you save up a bit more money, you can just get FULL COILOVERS.

it depends on how much you lower it. If you're dropping 1.5 or less than you can use your stock struts, but if you go lower you need to upgrade them and possibly get hotchkis rear camber links as well.
