Just lowering the Tipo on springs is a waste of time. Only fit a matched set of springs and Shockers. This way, you get the right rebound, resonance and recoil. Will make the car drive much much better. The right poundage, progress of stiffness and shock valve resistance will be correct. Just lowered springs will take this away from ideal, and just make the car handle and ride poorly.
