What are your thoughts on using lowering springs, do they help or hurt?

Only issue is that ur shocks aren’t adjusted for the lowered springs so it will wear out the shocks faster. Cool overs are always the way to go.
I had 35$ Amazon springs and my shocks were trashed second day if you are going to do lowering go with coil overs or a upgraded strut spring combo
If you get lowering springs, get upgraded shocks that can go along with your spring rate so your stock shocks dont get destroyed
Get coilovers. I’m on lowered springs and stock dampeners and its terrible being stuck with a static ride height, plus the ride is 💩
If you lower with springs. Before committing to a coil over system, see if the vehicle manufacturer has a performance shock/strut that work with lowering springs. With my 05 Mustang, ford supplies a variety of racing shocks/struts and work with lowering springs and I love them!
Buy decent eibach lowering Springs like one inch to 1.5. Monroe has a line of shocks called reflex that should function within those tolerances. The reflex line also has a locking internal piston stopping shock compression 30 percent sooner than the factory shocks. They can be purchased at your local parts store if in the USA.
I cutted my oem springs with an anglegrinder😂
I bought my nissan primera with cobras installed and the only thing thats bad is rougher roads are not very comfortable.
If coilovers r out of ur budget u can get short stroke shocks with the lowering springs. Thats wat i did to my civic and i have no complaints.
