all depends on what year your car is.....

just dont cut your springs....your friends are morons....
cutting the springs will be horrible on the struts and the ride will be bouncy as hell
and not to mention the springs wont sit on the strut right so you will end up hearing alot of funky noises and the springs may have a tendancy to fall off the struts

Skunk2 and Eibach are good lowering springs. Mopar's were the best, in my opinion, but they have been discontinued.

+1.

Eibach, TEIN, Goldline, Hotchkis, Progress, etc.. are all great brands. I'm currently on the Eibach Pro-Kit springs and couldnt be happier...except i need new struts .

Just get new springs (Eibach). They're only 200.

03neonRT: How many miles did you put on your struts with the Eibachs on?

I put a good 10k-12k on the stock struts before the fronts started to go...they're pretty much gone now i just havent gotten around to buying some HP Blues yet. I put them on my car when they already had 40k of normal wear on them so i wasnt suprised at all when they went...
