sure they would be fine, i mean there just average, perfect for lowering on a budget.

but if your plans are to xe it then id go for coilovers with uprated front springs..

or just a decent suspension setup

60mm is easy to live with, had mine lowered for 60mm for over a year, just depends if you want comfort or handling and looks.

dont get cheap coilovers..buy cheap buy twice

If you're on a budget a gmax or Jamex kit will be fine 60mm will be fine with the speedbumps as well
