get the eibach pro kits. its adds a little bit of stiffness but lowers it guud enough in my opinion. Also if your gonna start dropping start looking into camber kits to correct the alighment.

You're probably going to have to get front and rear camber kits as well though.. that's like another $220+ AT LEAST for those cheap Godspeed ones.

depends. if the toe is in spec, he doesnt need to worry much as long as he gets his tires flipped once the wear from the inside.

If you are planning on lowering your car, you will need the camber kits especially the rear arms & toe bolts

Why do I need those? Becuase the tires will wear out in the inside?

Yes it will faster than it is normally supposed to so if you'd prefer changing out tires more often then you are fine with just lowering it

Struts are on the front of your car, and shocks are on the rear.
Struts = spring and shock as one unit
shock = seperate from the spring, two seperate items.

If you drop an inch or more. You'll probably be needing one. You can always check after you get an alignment to see if your specs are really really close to OE, but you'd be wasting money if they aren't.
