if you want to slam it dont just use springs, youll notice naff handling and a degrade in your original shocks/dampers.

In any case I think the lowest spax do is 60mm? I could be wrong though.

Get coilovers, although they are expensive!

if you are just lowering using springs then I would seriously consider a high quality spring manufacturer like Eibach. Depends on the drop you want to do

As craig states the best option is matched shocks and spring. Coilovers are IMO an expensive luxury and only worth doing for big drops or if you need regular height adjustment
