I would say somewhere between an inch and two inches. You don't want to go too much especially on aftermarket rims with low profile tyres.

Eibach do well respected springs which shouldn't break the bank.

Just be careful if you have a bodykit on your car. I lowered mine on Bilsteins by about an inch, and have to be very careful with sleeping policemen and multi storey carparks! The veilside front bumper has a habit of scrapping
