Lowering springs or an H&R Cup Kit.

They all will drop around 1" a little more or less. If money is not an issue, the best shot is coilovers. I'm on H&R sport right now, and I can't complain. No bumps, holes or whatever is not an issue anymore. search the sponsors they are very explicit on it

For an Xi you can only go with H&R springs for mild lowering. If you want more than an inch then coilovers are the only way.

If you just want a modest drop like 1", the best bang for your buck is gonna be the Eibach Pro Kit. I had the Pro kit before and I sold it for $120. Look it up in the classifieds.

if you have an Xi, you're in luck because 1" is what the H&R Sport kit drops the car.
