Default Biggest Drop For Your Buck

I have been looking around the forum (ALOT) trying to find the lowering spring that offers the biggest drop without having to do anything with the struts, cambers etc... As soon as I think I find my answer, I hear about another spring. So I figured I should just ask the experts. Which is it? Ride quality not a huge issue. Over all product quality comments welcome also.



Thanks.
-Matt

P.S: Yes I have looked at "Springs Springs Springs"

As far as I know, Eibach's Sportlines were the lowest at 1.5" all around. They've been disco'd, but I think if you look hard enough you could still find some.

I'd be careful about the lowest drop with just springs on stock shocks/struts.. Looking for the lowest drop, may want to save up for some coilovers..

Here's a spring thread that Kamispeed put together. There was another springs thread that I'm a bit too drunk to find right now.

Springs Springs Springs

Scooter is right. You can get a set of Megans for around 700-800. I believe Tony at Basis is selling a set of Apexi Coilovers for $750 shipped.

Well I had an opportunity to get H&R springs at no cost to me so I jumped on it and they are on their way. I have looked around the forum and have found very little about H&R's so I started to wonder why no one ever suggest, recommends, or ever come up in a "Help Me Choose" thread. I figure there must be a reason why.

I sent "Debello" a message asking what he thought of his, just before I found he sold his CR-Z.

Tempting, but I have a thing about keeping all my stock parts. You never know what kind of deal will come up that you cant pass and you may need to sacrifice a car.
