Default 3" wheel gap

So I posted in the suspension section with no help and now I will ask here.

I have a 89 Si HB and want to lower it, the problem is I have 3" of wheel gap and I want it to be gone. In order for that to happy I would have to drop my car 3.25 inches and I want to drop it 3.5 inches to get some wheel tuck.

Now my problem is that most springs only come in a drop of 2.75 and no more unless you go coilovers. Is there a setup I can run with KYB shocks to give me the drop I'm looking for? Maybe use some Ground Control coilovers?

sprint springs may have what your looking for. I bought 2" lowering springs and kyb struts, and I'm about 1/2" from the top of my 15" wheel/tires. I thought about going w/ sprints 3" drop springs but I'm glad I didn't. 2" gives it a nice stance.
