As the thread title implies. Would prefer ssc/cm but open to every other spring as well.

D2's drop pretty low man.

H&R's are probably the lowest for springs though. D2's come in a rough second in my opinion. the rears could be a tad lower but the fronts tuck a little on d2's I like them. Inexpensive too

B&g is the lowest spring you can get but I would image it's not a great ride considering how low they are.

I had B&Gs many moons ago. I didn't have a good experience with them. Maybe I got a bad set but they didnt set level at any corner.

I've run sportlines before...they are low...and stiff.

I ended up buying some sportlines yesterday locally, but im still debating. I would still prefer SSC/CM springs. I havent seen many run B&Gs..but mine used to sag a little.

I wanted to get the d2 springs but i guess they discontinued them.. i ordered the d2 ones off jmautoracings website last summer but they called and said they no longer make them, so they ended up just sent me ksports instead.. and to the OP Ksports are pretty good for the price! Drop is good and the ride is decent

Seems like many do forget about the Eibach Pro Kit. I do agree sportlines are far from the best performance. However the Prokit does not drop much, but still offers a nice ride.
