Real good info to keep in mind if I go the coil path. I wont cheap out either. Whats your take on springs on stock struts for the time being. Eg. Eibach or Racecomps springs just for the lower look. Also read that aftermarket springs springs on stock struts will shorten the life and wear out the strut faster?
