Default springs

Guys do you know a good pair of springs that will drop the car 2.25 front and 2.00 rear?I have sportlines in there now,but the drop is only 1.75 all around with 50 series tires so I still have a pretty big gap in the wheel well.Suspension Tech has a set that is 2.30 front and 1.9 rear but I don't know how good the ride is?Any info would be welcomed.

Go get the ground controls and you can set it at any height you want.

how does the ride compare?I was told the coil overs will give a terrible ride as far as comfort?

any pics of your car? I'm dropped not quite 2" all around w/ H&R Sport and Koni shocks, and my gap is almost nil. I love how it looks.

make sure you get a camber kit for the front. my tires in the rear are fine, but unfortunately contrary to my belief the front wear was ridiculous, after 3000 miles. (dropped on 2.25 progress springs).

Make sure the toe-in is set exactly within spec when you get it aligned, I have no camber kit and tire wear is just fine after nearly 8K miles.
