why progress springs? i dont like how their drop looks.. the rear drops much lower then the front. i've seen a car here with progress springs, the front looks fine with no gap but the rear tucks a little.

REALLY.....i know the front drop is less than the back the front is 1.8 and 2.0 in the rear....i thought this was good because the car looks higher in the back than the front......what springs do you suggest?

do you have a kit? do you like your car slammed or are you just looking to kill the gap?
you could either go with neuspeed sports(it wasnt low enough for me) or neuspeed race.
i have neuspeed sports on 215-40-18s. its still way too high, 1 finger gap all around(sounds like a lil but its alot to me).
if you put sports on your car, your going to have a 2 finger gap all around. if you put race, your going to have a 1 finger gap all around... i personally would go with the race. or if you have a kit, go with the sports..

another thing you might want to look at is the h&r cup kit. it should be out within april. its about a 2" drop, its supposed to be height adjustable but i'm thinking you could go down an extra .25" more. it comes with it's own shock(recommended for a 2" drop) thats damper adjustable. should be able to get it for $600 shipped.
