Default LOWERING SPRINGS

Hey guys, I purchased some 17"x7" rims about a week ago and they are on their way in the mail. I realize that when I get them put on when they get here, the neon will most likely look a little odd since it's going to be sitting up so high. I understand that I will need to buy some lowering springs for the car to make it look right, but my concern is I don't want to go to low, I just want it to look as low as it did when it was stock, cause as it is already, I have to worry about bottoming out all the time, and can hardly get my car on the track in carwashes lol! So what your take on the ebachi springs, or however you spell it? I think its 1.5 inches in the front, and 2.5" inches in the back? Will that make the car sit nice and low while still retaning legitimate suspension and not bottom out everywhere i go, and i live in maine, so potholes and ruts are very common! Thanks guys!

Just don't get the Eibach sportlines unless u want to replace the struts. That drops the car too much IMO. The Prokit would be nice. It's like a 1.5 inch drop front and about .2 more in the back.
