H&R is the best overall drop on these cars. B&G and Tein both suffer from the rear sagging and causing reverse rake.

Usually because of cost. Cobalts are cheap therefore the people that buy them are cheap. Most dont think its worth it for this car. If you can afford it coilovers are definitely the best option. Im waiting untill I have enough saved up.

No my sig is photoshopped, but it would only be a little bit higher than my sig. H&R is like 1 finger gap in the front, and 1.5 in the rear.

Race has a really aggresive rake, like the rear is almost 1.5 inches higher, maybe more, than the front. There a spring so the quality is not going to be much different just how low or high it makes your car. H&R is kind of soft for the drop it gives but its not terrible.
