It is a matter of personal preference and I will not tell you that one way is better than another: but there are pros and cons for everything!

Pl;ease make sure that you let us know what you decided, and show us how it looks: PICTURES!

Good luck!

NICE!

I am sure k1e1v1i1n and mine (was) a little lower...

I find that mine even lifted is handling very well: it's all in the shocks/springs/sway-bar combination, and very little in the height itself!

I'm guessing you will just want to be lowered during the summer months? If that's the case springs are fine, just be warned that eventually your shocks will suffer because they won't have the same compression they were designed for by stock.

In a perfect world we would all just grab spring/shock combos specifically for lowering your vehicle, but like you said all of us wouldn't want to spend 2k+ just to lower ride height, so springs will do the job but I wouldn't drive like that all year
