I'm not sure what kind of shocks & springs you've installed on your car, but I'd suggest doing something about the stock units if you haven't already. (couldn't tell from your post)As for what brand. . . well, talk to your wallet. lol.
If you do end up lowering your car, though, it would be nice to have an adjustable upper control arm, and a tow control arm.up front, it'd be nice to have a TC rod w/ a spherical bearing. I've heared of ppl that use the polyurethane TC bushings having problems with their TC rod and/or lower control arm. It's caused by torsional flexting exerted on the TC rod from the movement of the lower arm. When you have a rubber bushing, it's not a problem since the rubber flexes, but when you install the much harder polyurethane one, it CAN cause problems.
In order to alleviate this problem, I've seen some ppl drilling holes into them to allow for some flex, but I'd rather go w/ spherical bearings than to chance it on guesstimation.
BTW, Dont' worry, it's only the TC rods that have this problem. None of the other arms should have any problems.
