Need advice on which front and rear springs to go with

[warlord]

I've done some thorough searches on my topic and I can't quite seem to make up my mind on which springs are right for me so I will ask u guys personally....
First off when I bought the car it came with upper and lower tubular control arms( don't know if this makes any difference), but I don't know what brand they are, also have factory size tires, & I'm not going to take the car to the track, it will be street driven only, i would like a good handling car .. It also has brand new kyb shocks , I'm also going to be doing all body bushings along with the new springs, I don't want to break my pockets with a set of coil overs ,but I have my mind set on the DSE springs front and rears with 2" drop, but I think I read somewhere that they need to be bought as a spring/shock combo set, and just the DSE springs won't work properly if u don't have DSE shocks?, plz correct me if I'm wrong...
I want a very good looking stance and would like to drop the car about 2", and would like a decent handling car on the highway/street......thx guys any info would be appreciated

You don't have to use the DSE shocks but it is highly recommended, reason is DSE designed their shocks with the 2" drop in mind & they valved the shocks matching the coil springs rate and the timing of the jounce bumpers. You can use Any shock, it will just compress the distance of the actual drop and you will loose that travel that's all..

I have a customer who will be switching over very soon from this DSE 2" drop springs & shocks to a coil over set up if your interested? It's only a couple years old but you will be able to save some money buying it this way...

Sure but you will loose 2" of travel with those and risk the shocks bottoming out! That is one thing overlooked a lot when lowering a car... If a company makes a complete 2" drop system It's usually Best to stick with the intended products that mach one another as they were designed to work together.
