Any recommendations? I'm only looking for the drop look but don't want to compromise expedited wear and tear on my OEM suspension.

I had them on the car for about a year (then sold the car) and I think I put 15k miles on it. For as long as I owned the car, they held up really nice. If you are worried about all that, then I would suggest coil overs but my car was fine on stock suspension + h&r springs.
