Default Optical Illusion???

I want to get Eibach Sportlines with 1.7" all the way around.. But I heard that it makes the front look higher than the rear.. I was told that it's just an optical illusion.. Maybe it is.. But, I was also wondering.. Would it go the same for a set of Springs with a 2" drop all the way around?? And another thing... What's a good set of springs with a 2" drop all the way around?.. I've been looking around for awhile and I can't find a good set with 2".. I usually find 2" in front and 1.5 in rear... Well if you guys can help, that would be great..

it is an optical illusion, but thats because the wheel wells for the front are larger than the rears. Most other companies compensate for this by making the front springs shorter so that it lowers it more.

if using koni sports you can just drop the springs down to the lower perch up front. makes up for it PERFECTLY imo.

Go with H&R race springs. Drops 1.7" rear and 2" front. A friend of mine has them and the drop looks perfect...even all around.
