I believe that when lowering your car, you have to invest in a good set of shocks and springs. Changing only the oem springs will not provide an optimal compromise between comfort and handling. I will most likely reduce the tire pressure from 40 psi to 35 psi once the suspension upgrade will be done.

I intend to keep my car for another 5+ years, so the investment is justified in my case.
