thing about goldline springs... alot of people complained about the (old) coupe springs on a coupe. the fronts fender gap would be 1 finger(keep in mind it varies by tire size) and the rear would be none. alot of people didnt like this so what they did was they used sedan springs on their coupe... so now it would be a 1 finger gap in the front and 1 finger gap in the rear.... goldline acknowledge that people disliked the drop coupe springs gave so on nov 29th they released a new re-designed coupe spring that fixes this "problem".
as for which springs you should get, i personally like neuspeed race. i have neuspeed sports with 215-40-18 tires.. i dont rub, i dont really have problems even with 5 people in the car. its pretty high still. i have a 1 finger gap all around, it doesnt sound like much but it still looks like alot. but ya its really up to your "style" i like my car slammed, some only like to kill the fender gap. sports will kill the gap but your car really wont look dropped.. 4 out of 5 people wont realize my car is dropped unless if i told them. (btw sports and goldlines have a relative 1.75" drop)

I have sedan springs on a coupe and love them, have 215/40/17's. No rubbing. Hey man, maybe you should have left the gold line announcement sticky, this is like the 10th post on this in a week that I've seen from you...maybe you should add it to the faq.....

no you dont, i got 215-40-18 with neuspeed sports and i am perfectly fine without rolling my fenders... you could even go with a 2.25" drop and you'll be fine with his tires.. and neuspeed sports and goldlines have a similar drop
You might not want to install camber kit. With the size of your tires and wheels, you need negative camber on the rear where your rear tires will be tucked in the fender, so your rear tires don't rub. I'm getting the new redesigned springs this week, I'll post some pics after I put them on.
Goldlines are softer than Neuspeed and Eibach. The softness gives you better ride quality, but if you put weight on the back, your rear tires will go inside of the fenders.
