you set your self up for failure.

if you want to go low. don't plan on going past about 2 inches on lowering springs.

lowest around is eibach sportlines that will kill your struts pretty quickusually if your going for more than 1.5 inch drop. factory struts need to be replaced with a more performance oriented strut.

lol, your asking to e-mail him?

OP, if you want that much of a drop, just save up for coils. Used good-condition ones can be had for pretty cheap if you get a good deal.
