If you're not slamming your car, the Tokico blues are fine. If you go lower than 1.5" then I suggest upgrading to the adjustable whites.

Personal experience, you'll be much happier with H&R sport springs

iI bought the set up finally, tokico blues with the s-techs so much of a better ride. Thanks for all the ideas but the handling is so much better now the springs can do what they are supposed to do with out bottoming out. It's odd going from 2.5 drop to 1.2 but I love the smoothness and handling.
