Which springs to get.
Are there any brand springs out that maybe with .75 - 1inch drop? I want the least amount drop to avoid needing cambers, it's going in a commuter and I don't want to spend a ton of money just to drop it a bit.

Obviously you haven't read the FAQ!!! You don't need a chamber kit just because your low. My tires are flush with my fenders running -2.0 natural chamber in front, -1.5 in the rear. My tires z1 starspecs have almost 20k and no uneven wear. I should only get 30 k out of my tires but I have more than 50% tread left.
Your toe adjustment is what will wear the tires out

H&R sport lowering springs would do nicely. Eibach's "pro kit" lowering springs would also be a good option. Both are in the same price range; about $200 and both are progressive springs. The Eibach kit will drop the car about a 1/4" less than the H&R springs. I had a set of H&R sports on my integra for a few years and I was very happy with the ride quality and ride height. I bought them new along with a new set of KYB gr-2 OE replacement shocks and never had any issues with either. The only major thing to do along with installing something such as lowering springs is an alignment. It is absolutely necessary to re-adjust the toe angles after lowering a vehicle to prevent abnormal tire wear. The small amount of natural negative camber you will gain by lowering the vehicle will not adversely effect tire wear. There is no need to install a camber kit to correct it.
