Default Those with H&R sport springs, how much of a drop did you get from stock height?

I am on a budget and debating on if I should just go with the H&R Sport Springs with Bilstein shock combo at $810 or go with the Bilstein PSS non dampening coilovers at $949...I am not tracking the car or racing around Fast & Furious style. I am just cruising around.

H&R sport spring description on ECS says it can drop 1.5 to 2.0"
well how so if Coilovers can only be that adjustable???

Default Less than the 1.3" / 1.4" they quote. If you get Koni shocks ...

your car will go a little lower. The Bilsteins don't drop as much with the same springs.

I've seen Eibach/Koni setups that looks about as low as my H&R/Bilstein. You might search for some of those pics to see what you think. Eibachs are a better spring IMO.

Default Just spent 12 hours putting the H&R coilovers on...

But the front is too low not where as the rear is still high. Will post pictures after adjust them to the right hight.
