That's a hell of a rake. You'd have to get 2 different sets of springs. H&R or Roadmagnets in the front and Cobb or MS in the rear would get you close. Coilovers would be a much, much better decision than springs.

well, think of it like this....you can spend maybe 250-400 dollars on springs and maybe even camber links then in a year or a little more you will spend more money on new shocks/struts because the lowering springs wore yours out faster than stock. after that you will have $1000 in your suspension. thats the conclusion I have come to. save and be patient, you will be happy with coilovers in the long run
