Hewy Ryan, the springs are easy enough to install, why not just buy the springs now, tint your windows now, then upgrade the struts when you get more money saved? ( that's what I'm doing, the spring install is easier than you would think, trust me )

even if you want to spend the few hours doing the springs again.....you have to get a $65+ alignment everytime you redo the suspension, do the springs/struts at the same time

20's will work, all you need is a lower profile tire and its no difference
the problem is that most 20's are 20x8.5, which wont work. you need 20x7, maybe 7.5. do a search, some people have 20's and are lowered
20's on a alero is pretty gay

Right Here
The ones you need are towards the bottom, just look @ the years listed on the left. *note* The advertised 1.50 inch drop is under-rated, you'll see more than that.
