Gabriel and Monroe are on the budget/stock replacement level, and to my knowledge not meant for lowering springs.

If you are going to buy lowering springs you need to have enough money to cover for shocks that are going to work in concert with the springs (i.e. Bilstein, Eibach, Koni). If you put stock shocks with lowering springs you will need to replace the shock more quickly.

You can do a half assed job twice or the right job once.

Hi I read that they are decent but can I buy aftermarket springs that will make the ride stiffer and more " sporty" but not lower and ruin the shocks? Also on the ebay description it makes it out to seem that they are sport shocks....
