best spring & strut for lowering the car?

I want to lower the car 1" & I wanted to know if there is a strut & spring combination that was known as the best for our cars for street use.

Eibach Pro-kit springs and Koni Yellows or Bilstien shocks. If you want a more "comfortable" ride, go with the same springs with KYB GR-2 shocks.

Re: best spring & strut for lowering the car?

I really like my Hotchkiss spring set that I got for my 84 T/A....lowered the car 1 to 1.5 inches and it looks really good. You will feel the road with these springs though, they are a sport spring. For struts, I'm running the Monroe Sensatrac's but as soon as I can afford it I'm going to get Koni's.
