Got to learn at some point. Start a little stiffer than full soft and go from there.

you might run into problems if you try to use wider wheels and tires in the future. you can also forget about trying to use 18" wheels

I apologize if this was answered in the thread already, but I want to lower my '08 FA5 and was wondering what the best way to go about this is.

Can I just put springs on or do I need to get different shocks and struts. I want my handling to be stock or better. I want nothing to get worse, obviously. This includes tire wear.

skunk2 pro s are pretty cheap. Can be had for 600xx dollars. Redshift are good too of course, just a little bit more and need a little bit more knowledge for the install.
