I’m on stock suspension and was wondering if it’s possible to lower the car but not make it stiffer than stock suspension?

In general, a full coilover is going to allow you to change the ride height without killing your suspension travel. Lowering springs reduce suspension travel to lower the car whereas coilovers shortent the strut body to do the same thing on some models/brands.

If you do go with some of the more expensive options, you can actually get the car to ride better than stock and even opt for soft springs. More or less, you can tailor the suspension to fit what you need it to do.

I never liked lowering spring on cars. I ran 2-3 different sets on my WRX and you hit the bump stops on hard corners. Ride was never really great on any of them either.
