Personally I dont like those. Ground controls with koni yellows seem to do the job all day. Im also using a set of skunk2 pro c's and I like them a lot

Depending on what you are gonna use the setup for. If all you want is to lower your ride and have complete control over the entire drop from all sides(unlike lowering springs) then FF's and Ksports will be fine....but just for daily driving. I wouldn't push those hard at all.

If you wanna go with a slightly different setup you can go with a setup like Tokico Whites w/GC Coilover sleeves...you'll pay around the same amount for an FF setup though.

Another nice setup that I can vouch for is Koni Yellows and HR Race Springs. Now granted you can't super slam your ride but atleast with the Konis you can adjust the front perch for a little more drop in the front which is where it counts the most if you're going for looks.

Right now I am running on H&R Race Springs, Tokico Whites and although it's not slammed/tuckin the handling is great and I never bottom out.

I dunno if drop springs take time to break in and settle but I like the drop I have. It's not too low that i have severe camber problems.

Good luck with your quest. Post pics when you can

To compare the Pro-S and Pro-C in the simplist way is to just way the Pro-C is more designed for racing (so stiffer spring rates and more aggressive shocks). The Pro-S is more for someone who wants a full coilover but doesnt want to go all out with a more race suspension.
