Default Which springs should i use? Tokico 5049F or Neuspeed 55.20.20F

Going to Epping on Sunday.
I want the front of my car dropped before bringing it down the strip
I have the two front spring sets mentioned in the title.
I'm broke and won't be buying anything.

The car is a 92 cx hatch, has tokico struts. Never used either springs mention, want to know peoples experiences with them and which they think I should use
Thanx

Are you only dropping the front? Why do you want to drop the front before you go to the strip? If you're just dropping the front, the car will have some serious rake and look goofy. Not to mention handle like crap probably.

I believe those Tokico springs drop the car about 1.5" in the front. The Neuspeed springs drop 1.75" and are probably a little stiffer than the Tokicos.

Why else would I randomly just dropp the front?
Went with the neuspeeds cause they were in better condition..
Looks good, nice and stiff like I wanted, and help with traction as expected
