Go with a set of Eibach Sportlines if you want to go that low. If you're on a budget, install KYB shocks and struts. If not, go with Bilstein or Koni.

stevem, I just installed suspension techniques springs all the way around and new struts. It put the car at a perfect height, so the front tire properly fills the opening in the fender. It rides noticeably harsher, but handles far better. I also added the suspension techniques sway bars, which were only slightly larger than the stock ones on my WS6 Formula.
