i was wondering if i could go with some eibach springs on stock shock and all that other stuff just stock and go with JUST springs. Is that possible without having to do new shocks and dampers and stuff?

It would be a good idea to get a camber kit, and depending on the drop, new shocks as well. If the drop is pretty low (2 inches or more) your stock shocks will blow pretty quick.

The lowest car ive seen on stock shocks is a 1.8 drop, and his shocks are still doing fine, i dont know how much longer they will be fine.... How old is your current setup?

Honestly man, save yourself the trouble later on and get some new shocks. You may also wanna pick up a camber kit.

What cant you find???

And if you just wanna buy springs, get some tein s-techs. You can keep everything stock with those. Its a 1.5 inch drop i believe.
