Thinking of Lowering my Monte

Hey everyone, I'm considering lowering my 2002 Monte LS about 1-2 inches. Can anyone guide me in the right direction of what parts I should look into? And what parts would I need?

Thanks!

You'll need a set of lowering springs. SSC is a good brand, and I wouldn't do it on the stock struts if they are old, so you would need a new set of struts. KYB GR2 are a decent stock replacement.

I would suggest SSC springs as well.

I've heard good things about the SSC lowering springs. I'll probably go that route if I decide to lower my 06, although I did have Eibach lowering springs on my 03.
