there is no good answer to this question.

first what are the offset of your wheels ? because you have the same width as oem so there is no problem here unless you have very agressive offset.

for suspension, depend of you goal and budget, you can spend on some f82 m4 swift spec r lowering spring. in my mind thay are amazing but will def lower the shock life .

then you can put bilstein b6 sport shock to replace oem shock.

you can go with any has, like dinan or kw….. you will blow you oem shock faster like the swift…..

you can go cheap coilover like bc racing (would never do that)

bilstein pss10 good comfort and perfromance
kw v3 bilstein pss10 rival

etc etc

ohlins mcs …..just depend how much you want to spend

To get a good answer to this question you need to post your goals. Just saying you want to lower the car isn't nearly enough information.

We need:

Make/Model and exact spec + offset of wheels.
Make/Model and exact spec of your tires.

How low are you wanting to go?
What's your budget?
Are you wanting larger tires?
Would you consider skinnier tires?
How important is ride quality to you?
Do you ever track your car?
Do you have good streets or are they full of pot-holes?

I mean, you need to give people good information if you're looking for good results.

If he just wants to lower it, it may be that the only thing he wants to know is how much each option will drop the car.

Obvs, clearance could be an issue...
