im planning on lowering my car but i dont know what to get. I was looking at these coilovers but i dont know if theyre any good. Do they just go in place of our springs? And how would it look if it was lowered 2.0 front 2.0 rear?

If doing the work isn't a problem i would recommend just getting springs first. Then you can replace the shocks later if you need to. I have a 40-50mm drop on the original struts and the ride is superb. The OEM shocks are pretty good.
Push down hard on each corner of the car. If it springs up once, then settles the shocks are still good. If it bounces up and down more than once, you'll need new shocks too.  -------------------- |
