Default Help!! Lowering springs with 20" rims

I recently got a awesome deal on some 20" rims so I went ahead and got even know I would rather just have 18's. I know the 20's are going to make the car much higher so I want to lower it with some springs but I dont know what springs to buy that are good and will fit with the 20's.
The rims I have are 20x9 15mm offset and 20x10 20mm offset.
Any feedback or sugestions here would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

You will be fine with that seteup as long as you run the right size tire. I had eibach sportlines on mine and they fit perfect. Here is a picture of mine

Well i guess they dont raise you car but they give the impression of it. Here is my car with the same wheels as umsracing and mine have the huge gap between the tires and the tire wall, so i think it does raise it???? But it does look way better when lowered so thats what im doin. Thanks for the help UMSRACING!!!!
