    typing like a human being is a good start

    "custom" lowering springs/shocks is the best way out of your two ideas

    cut the springs in half then go for a top speed run to see if they have "bedded" in properly

    well thats some reputation points for you


    as for the post , try get a full kit if you can , because then they will be matched ,

    if you cant afford the kit and go for springs only , dont go more the 40mm as they will just bottom out
