Anyone know any good springs to lower with out hurting comfort. I just want to kill the gap between wheel weal and the tire, but I dont want to ruin the comfort. Its only a daily driver so im not to woried about performance.

Any good springs with a nice set of shocks and struts will do the job and you won't notice much of a difference at all. I am getting the MaxSpeed springs with Tokico Illumina shocks and struts. I'll let you know how it feels.

I have eibach sportlines on mine..nice springs, not too harsh not too soft..drop real nice.(of course I had to drop more)
eibachs sportlines together with tokicos go real nice..

My c springs are cool. It is a little harsh but very liveable. I will probably add shocks/struts in the future. But I am not in a hurry.

I went with the griggs racing setup. Its all fully adjustable but it still rides rough. Find one smooth road though and its totally worth it!

Mirza has the right idea. In order to achieve the best ride you must buy a spring/strut combo. His combo is a great suggestion. I think that if you are using the tokico illumina setup you can pretty much go with any spring but I suggest Eibach or Steeda. Also, and this is a must, after your car is lowered your rear pinion angle is off. Steeda sells an upper control arm to correct this angle but if your a suspention genius you can simply buy adjustable uppers and do it yourself.
