Yes.

guess to lower 45mm to 60mm your looking at coilovers rather than lowering springs

You can get 60mm springs but they aren't the best for handling and will ruin your dampers unless you uprate those too. Do you want looks or handling? Or both?

I would personally only go 35-40mm max on standard shocks.

id like it to look lowish so the wheels are snug in the arches not euro low where its on the floor but to handle well without being skittish and all over the place

Personally I'd look for a decent set of used coilovers in the marketplace on here. That way they will be cheaper than buying new but still decent coilovers.
