    low springs doesnt equal good handling.... really depending on how low you wanna go, an how much you wanna spend.

    thats right dude...if u lower abit...like 1inch or so...it should handle better, however if u just change ur springs and leave ur shocks to standard...it won't be good, if anything...you'll be very bouncy coz ur shocks ain't playing properly.(this is if u go low low) IMO

    l'm using merwede springs, and they dropped me bout 1inch - 1.5 all round.
    handles better than stock on corners (smooth corners) but when it comes to bump roads/bumpy corners, the car feeels abit unstable. Less body roll, but feels nervous.

    my 2 cents

    my car was on the kings superlows running on stock 14", handling was a lot better than standard height. But with any lowered springs it is a little more bumpy, but i had padders on my previous car and they were bumpy as, imo.

    i have eibach prokit on my car, they lower 35mm and i noticed quite a good improvement in handling characteristics, the ride is also pretty good, not too bumpy, as they are a progressive spring as well

    man if you want better handling go for the springs and shocks but also an anti sway bar would help. i think thats what theyre called i cant remember but i know what i am talking about....someone vouch?
