Spring Help. I don't know what I'm doing.

I am thinking of getting some tanabe springs for my 09 Spt and have a couple questions. Is this just a simple parts swap? I keep reading about camber etc.. Are there other factors to worry about or parts that typically need to be changed.
I want to just do about a 1.5 drop so my car doesn't feel so tippy on tight curves. I am going to try to stick with my stock 16 wheels until my budget is better.

Thanks for any ideas.

i heard on the 09 the install is a little more involved then the GD spring swap. there's a DIY on the boards though for how to do it

Thanks, Anyone really prefer one spring brand over another. If they are about the same drop are they all comparable?
