is it just a daily driver? if so , do what your budget allows.if you drag race or auto x , i would spend some money on good parts.

Go search the suspension section but in order:
Koni
Bilstein
KYB AGX
Tokico blues

Depends on what you wanna spend but the Koni's are far above the rest. You'll blow out the AZ cheapys quickly cause they are not made for a lowered car. Pricing at stranoparts.com
