Default lowering car

If i were to get C5 wheels, I know I would probably want to drop it to. What is the best kit or shocks or whatever to buy to lower it? Thanks.

You car has the stock DeCarbon shocks. They don't have a very good reputation. A new set of good shocks isn't cheap.

1.Most people get both new shocks and springs (expensive)

2.Others just roll on the DeCarbon's and upgrade the springs (cheaper)

3.Some cut the spring AND roll on the decarbon's (free...that is prob. the route I'm going for now.)

You have to research and think about what kind of suspension set-up you want...

*strip car
*street car
*Auto cross car
*Daily driver car
