Help me decide on springs!

The first thing I wanna mod my car with is lowering springs, yet I don't know which one I should go for. I've seen the thread with the lowering springs but I still can't decide.

I'm thinking the T1R's but before I even found out about the T1R's, I was going to go with the DF210's. The Eibach Pro-Kit catches my eye too..

I don't really want an extreme drop but still low enough to look great. The comfortability matters too of course. Perhaps something that goes pretty low and still drives smooth at the same time.

Suggestions are appreciated. Thanks guys!

Very happy with my Eibachs. Ride is slightly harsher than stock but nothing ridiculous. Canyon carving is improved Slight nose down stance...looks aggressive without being slammed.

I suspect you are going to find happy campers with any brand you have listed...I have Eibach and what do you know? I like em'

I have the DF210's and while the back looks great, the front needs more of a drop. Ill probably be replacing them with coilovers soon. No springs right now drop it as much as Id like.

If I would lower mine, I'd go Eibach, it's the least amount of lowering, and I think it looks nice. I really dislike the DF210 because of the higher front. T1Rs are a close second. But I'd go Eibach if I ever were to do it.

my vote goes for the eibach pro-kit with what you're looking for: Not a substantial drop but improved handling without sacrificing daily-drivability!
