lowering set up

So I need to find a good, dependable, and cheap route to lower my fastback. I want something pretty stiff but its a daily driver so... I had some megan racing lowering springs but they keep eating up my shocks. I was wondering what a good spring and shock combo was.

Tein S Techs are good, said to be soft I can't really tell you, but if you have AGX shocks you can get it pretty tight.

for the amount you keep spending on shocks then you coulda bought some decent coilovers that would last and give you better performance/adjustability, which is what im recommending to you

i wouldnt put "sleeve type coilover springs " on my lawnmower. megan racing, KTS, STANCE, silkroad sound good to me.

www.splparts.com (i personally have the KTS coilovers)
