tokico blues + "which springs?"

Im settled on getting tokico blues, but which springs? I gave tokico a call and they notified me any drop over 1.5" voids warranty. I want an even drop so the springs im debating on are tanabe nf210, eibach pro kit, eibach sportline, and hr sport. Anybody run these set ups without fender rolling? I heard some people getting pro kits without having to get rear cambers and some people who had to. Any suggestions and reviews with any of these springs running tokico is gladly appreciated in my decision making on which springs to get.
BTW I have 205/60-R15 on some Heliums, so any drop bigger than 1.5" won't look right on my car anyways.

Re: tokico blues + "which springs?"

any spring you will need camber kit. i have prokit/tokico and its an even 1.5 inch wheel gap front and rear on my sedan (1 inch drop). plenty of space and you could prolly go lower, but ride quality is already gonna be rough. sometimes i wish i kept the stock springs when im driving on bad roads. i have 15s too and stock tire size.

Yea the tanabe nf210 caught my eye. They provide a 1.5" drop all around and only 5% percent stiffer than stock, but then again I would worry about bottoming out with those. Plus I don't see too much reviews on tanabe springs on our cars. How wide are your rims btw? Did you have to do a fender roll?

Keep in mind there was a heavy *** sub box in the trunk at the time. Even then, just kinda noticeable..
