What ever you do don't ruin the ride to get the car lower to pickup a tiny increase in MPGs.
My friend replaced the strut/spring assemblies on his 1999 sunfire he drives to work.
With the new springs the car rode almost 2'' higher, to his surprise MPGs remained with in the cars standard tank to tank deviation.
So he lost no measureable MPG and the ride to and from work was a lot better.
After a few months the springs settled and now it only rides an inch higher.
