Springs wont hurt your traction what so ever, its a very simple thing to do also, the IRS makes it cake. Fronts aren't to bad either. Only thing you might need is a set of Caster Camber plates when you get the car aligned. For sure lower it, car looks so much sexier IMO.

Bump steer will appear depending on how much you lower it. It is because the steering arms aren't parallel to the ground any more (not a very technical explanation, use Google for more info). I lowered mine with Eibach Pro-Kits, sits about 1.25" lower, and I have no bump steer issues. There are kits to fix it if it does appear.

If you are worried about bumpsteer, just get yourself a set of Steeda X2 balljoints, which help to correct the arm angle a bit, then get a decent set of bumpsteer rod ends to help level the steering rods. Between those parts, and a good set of 4 bolt CC plates, you should be able to dial out most, if not all of the bumpsteer.
