LOW springs

i want to go as low as possible with springs. i have been reading through these threads and i gather sportlines are the lowest, but it seems like the rear end would sag a whole lot. i also read the tein s tech is pretty low. does anyone have side shots of their fit with stock wheels and the tein s techs? i like the df210s but the front needs to be a little lower for my tastes. please help quickly, i need to order something soon. thanks guys.

not the best pics but it gives you an example of what to expect. i believe the sportlines have the lowest drop for springs for the fit. 2.0 drop in front 1.8 in the back.

yeah thats coilovers. i dont have $1000 extra right now, maybe later but for now im gonna have to get springs. i want to see pics of the sportlines because the drop is huge in the rear and i think it will sit way to unlevel.

i saw this guy's fit yesterday on eibach sportlines bc i'm going to buy them from him. on his sport fit, it was a very nice drop. it was pretty low for springs. the rear of the car sat a little lower than the front. i know its supposed to be the other way around, where the front is supposed to be dropped lower. although, it's barely lower than the front, so you really cant tell the difference. overall, it looks really aggressive..very nice if you're going for looks, and i cant wait til i install them on after i buy them from him.
he told me the ride is stiff compared to stock, and you can tell the difference when you're driving by yourself. he said, when you do hit dips and stuff, it does rub. when i get them, i'll take pics and tell you guys how it drives

actually my s-tech springs are lower then the sportlines.

i<8gd3 car wasnt lower then mine at all, he was running sportlines...but it gave him that nasty boat drop like the DF's.


i would rock s-techs day and night for being low
