depends what sort of budget your on and what your looking to do to the car. i would recormend going for the full kit if u want really good handelling and want the car lower than 40mm. if your not fussed and your shocks are in good nick then just get the springs with a 35mm drop.

go for the whole kit, because if with just lowered springs you go over a bridge for example and take off, the suspension will drop and because the springs are to short, they will fall out of position and then when you land you will be in trouble, same aplies to jacking up the car!

id deffo recommend a full kit. i had my 40mm gmax springs for 6months before uprating the shocks and i gotta say that it was well worth it.

its a lot better handling with the matched shocks. if you can afford a full kit then get that
