      I don't have the slightest clue how to use one though.

        That's why you have us.

        Really though it's pretty straight forward especially once you see it, and if not they'll explain it to you.

          Where can you rent them from? If it's easy enough where I could do it then I guess I could attempt it

            Pretty much any auto part store should have em, the bigger ones at least, you could even buy a set if you wanted considering they can be had for cheap.

                can't you like, hurt yourself really bad with a spring compressor if you don't know what you're doing?

                  Yep, pretty sure you can kill yourself if one of those pops off and hits you in the chest...but worth the risk to have a SICK looking ride and save all of $150

Besides the amount of drop , does the brand of spring really matter?
                    Either of the mentioned lowering springs are very good. My personal preference is H&R lowering springs. If you are looking for less tuck, Eibach is the way to go.

                                Princess Auto (canada only i think) has spring compressor kit there you can buy. It isn't expensive and does the job.

                                Used it on a friends car to drop his. Will use it on mine too.
