How Low should i Drop my ride..and what springs?

ive been looking at the Tein S-Techs..iv found most of the for around 180..should i drop it 2 inches? i have 19's and theres still about a 2 inch gap between my lo pros and my wheel well...so how low should i drop it, and whats the best set of springs for a good price.

go as low as you want... do you plan on a body kit? how are the roads? are you going for handling or just looks with the drop?

im dropped on tanabe df210's.. they go for about 160 and gives you a lower drop than either tein s or h techs... its stiffer than stock which i like and gives me the look i want.. pratically tucked in front and rear.

get coilovers, you wont get a 2 in drop from springs, plus with coilovers you can adjust where you want your height to be exactly!

i think the df210's drop the front 1.6 and rears 1.4 its the lowest you can go with springs, if you want a lower drop then you'll be happy with coilovers.
