Default What're the highest lowering springs for a 90q?

I'm looking to replace my springs because they are too low, and with 3 people (myself included) I bottom out on semi-bumpy roads (got a million around here). I would like to retain the lowered look, but since my sub box is going in soon I'm even more afraid of bottoming out. I would like a compromise. Can anyone suggest something? Thanks.

Default Voglands!

What do you have on there now? ABT?

How about the shocks?

Probably worn OEM shocks........

The dealer said ABT springs, but I have yet to prove that. Most likely he was lying. All I know is that the springs are a lime green color. And yes the shocks are most likely worn OEM.

Default Very bad to have OEM shocks with Lowered springs..........

I'm willing to bet, a new set of Bilstein 'Sport' shocks will perk up those sagging springs? ;O)

Can you run stock springs with sport shocks without any adverse effects?
