? about lowering with 19' on FD

I have 19x8.5 running a 235/35/19 all the way around. i've been thinking of trying to get rid of that jacked up look in the back, but not sure what's the best route. The front is fine maybe drop it a 1/2 inch but the back could use 2" drop. What springs should i use that would not give me any problems.

The best thing to do is get height adjustable suspension- coil overs. It will cost abit more then just getting lowered springs but having the advantage of choosing what height you want the car to sit at is great, plus its not that hard to adjust.

I agree that's probally the best route,but i rather spend that hard earned money towards a IC and get lowering springs. I just don't know which ones and i don't want to have that low rider bounce. I see lowering springs from $125 to $300 for all 4. But it seems like the lowering springs lower the front more then the back,which doesn't make sense. Any body running 19's with lowering springs please let me know what brand and your thoughts on them. Thanks

You can get a Ground Control coilover kit for $500-600 that uses your current shocks. (Cheap route)

You can go with just springs, and more than likely not like the outcome. (Ghetto cheap route)

Or you can get an actual coilover/shock setup. $1,200-2,800. (The right route)
