1) tein s-tech!
2) heeltoe automotive
3) i think most springs lower you more in the front than in the back.

what does everyone think about the H&R springs? i think its between those or the tein s-tech. The H-tech isnt enough of a drop for me,but i havent seen them in person i could be wrong.

I don't know about Tein S-Tech but whatever you do, don't get the H-Tech. I used to have it on my car and they where very soft.

Are you just buying springs? And putting them on your stock struts?
