Default Lowering 1 inch

Please help. I want to lower my 02' coupe front 1 inch and my back 1/2 inch. Or at least lower my front more than my back, but don't want to go over 1 inch in the front. Is this possible? someone told me i just need springs. if so, which springs will give me this small drop? will it give me more of a stock ride, which i prefer - i'm not a racer. not too expensive, i hope.

Also, i have 18's with 45+ offset with 235/40/18's and they stick out a centimeter past the front fenders. If i lower the car, will the tire hit the fender? anyone know of an inexpensive place in the chicagoland area / northern suburbs to install, maybe even buy the springs?

Thanks for your help.

Joe

just saw the post for the hr oe springs. again, my tires stick out past the fenders in front-they don;t tuck under. will lowering the car, even by .75 inch in front cause my tire to hit the fender or is the spring stiff / strong enough where it won't hit. my stock springs don't allow my front tires to hit the front fender. thanks.
