H&R race springs?

Depends on the look you want. Stick with the oem isolators if using them. I left all mine in, but the front could sit a little lower. I'm sure a "search" on these spings and you'll likely find pictures of other members cars with different combinations with isolators.
Depends on the look your going for. Here's mine for reference, H&R Races with not top isolators all around.

Ya they sit lower but they are alot softer than the Race's. So it what ever you prefer.
The ride with race springs is slightly more harsh than stock but the quality is greatly improved. I left the stock isos in all around because I've heard there is an increase in suspension noise without them.
Its great. Its stiff but not too stiff. i had a set of SS's and i hated them because of how soft they were, even though it looked killer cause it was slammed! So I went with the Race springs and love them.
Also like stated above about suspension noise, my top iso's all around are out so ive wrapped the top of each spring with some duct tape, and never had and noise.

I left all mine out. Later on might put tops in on rear to give it a slightly raked look

You will scrape a lot if you leave out all the isos, but you will scrape slightly less if you leave them all in. I have all mine in and I literally scrape at every speed bump unless im taking up three lanes worth of street to cross it. Others might disagree with me, but i think the ride is noticeably harsher than stock, but not bad at all. You suspension will also be slightly underdamped if you still have the factory bilsteins.
I'm on the stock wheels still, but H&R Race springs with only the bottom front stock isos in. I couldn't be happier with the look. Low, level, and jus the right amount of rake imo. I've had them in for two months now and no problems...many complements. good luck!
H and R Race with all Stock Isolators in. Also,for the rear spring install, make sure you can read the H and R Labeling Straight on.
I have yet to scrape on anything, and coming in my driveway is not pretty! Is your exhaust hanging to low?
I rarely scrap. You just need to pay attention to what's ahead on the road. Plus I have my exhaust tucked up in there pretty good.
