The numerous lowering kits all work on the same principle, but watch out for speed-bumps and curbed entrances, at your bank, neighbors and your own driveway

Lowered mine on it's stock bolts. Don't think I'd want to go lower on public roads. Down side to the kit is the disconnection of suspension parts to do the install which will warrant a realignment.

We sell the Eibach kit. Very well priced, and haven't had any negative feedback about it.
