B&G spring question

hey guys i wanna pick at someone's brain on this. i know how i lowered the truck i had to sit 2.5" off the ground and now i want to lower the balt. im looking at a set of B&G coils vs Eibach sportline pro kit ( with sway bars ). im looking for a stiffer ride ( i like to feel the road ) and a real low stance. i wanted coilovers but this is way cheaper and better ( i wont get into trouble lol ). i noticed the B&G say 1.4/2.0" drop when the eibachs are 2.0/2.5" drop. now im torn between the 2 here. next year i plan on running some 18" wheels probably tenzo R with 225/40/18 tires. i want to be slightly tuckin, maybe 1/4" or even .5" would be fine. any information would be awesome. oh btw i have a 06 ss N/A. so i think thats fe3 suspension?

I had the B&Gs and they are the lowers drop. Eibach prokit is the highest of them all... ride on the B&Gs is ok but a little bouncy

now i came from like a said a slammed mini truck and i couldnt fit a credit card between my axel and my frame...and it wasnt touching. very bouncy lol. so b&g will give me the low? will it give me tighter cornering? im going to auto x the car next year. im also going to get sway bars front and rear soon. and with +40mm offset wheels i should be fine with not rubbing?
