Default 2003 ZX2 Suspension

I was thinking about getting lowering springs for my 2003 zx2 and I've heard that they can cause problems with the suspension, I've talked to a few people that have them and they say that its not true. So I was wondering what you guys have to say. Thanks

Lowering a ZX2 will cause camber issues in the rear. An alignment after lowering will do the trick.

Thanks for the input. Would it also mess up the control arm or ball joint in the front? Cause I've Heard a couple of people say that, but theirs were older models so it could have just been age with theirs. I just don't want to totally f*** up my car

It should not mess up the arms or ball joints as far as I know. Make sure those components are all good before the drop.
