I would suggest H&R Supersports. Gives you a great stance and rides really nice for being dropped so far. But, you can get the Sportlines from Eibach for about $30 less. Another nice thing with the H&R's is that they don't have super high spring rates, so I paired mine up with a set of Mach I shocks (Tokicos) from http://www.fordpartsnetwork.com for $179. So in all, I have less than $400 in shocks/struts and spings and the car handles and looks nice. BTW, the H&Rs are advertised at 1.8"F/1.6"R and mine settled to more like 2" all around which left the car nice and low with just a hint of a front to rear rake.

I got my springs off of Ebay for $205 or $210 to the door. The shocks/struts were from the link in my first post.

Thanks I'm sure the stock shocks will be fine for the time being.
I'm planning on putting the Mach 1's struts in.
