Well, with an inch and half drop, he'll be chewing up tires, so I'd say it's either spend like 2-300 bucks on a nice set of camber kits, or be buying tires almost twice as often due to cupping. That's his call, but I wouldn't recomend anything more than like 3/4 of an inch to an inch at most without the use of some sort of camber correct.
Eibach makes good springs as well as H&R, they are reaslistically the two leaders in springs, they both have the most R&D and realistic quality management. As far as Tockico, it's just a matter of prefference, but I['m not a big fan, I think when it comes to suspension components, you get what you pay for, and there's a reason why Tockico is a less expensive strut. Honestly though, for the street, it's not much going to matter. Either way, I'll stick with my recomendation of Billsteins, they're just provide very high quality dampning...
