I recommend putting the Steeda Sportline springs on the front and the H&R springs on the back. That gave me a 1.25" drop in the front and close to a 1.75" in the rear, evening out the factory rake and giving the car one bad-ass stance. Oh it helped that I have the 18x10.5" wheels on the rear. :)

I had the same intention in my intial search as you have - about not wanting to exceed the 1.5" drop height. However, the 1" rake was even more exaggerated, which really bothered me.

I ended up replacing the steeda springs out back with the H&R and the set-up is perfect, IMO. The car even rides better thanks to the softer spring rates of the H&Rs.

Just ordered the '00R Eibachs:

FRPP Racing Springs #M-5310-R00
FRPP Racing Springs #M-5560-R00

I'll let you know what the drop rate is once they go in.

the hr has the nicest stance. If you have the money id always push for coilovers buyt if you want a mean stance and improved street handling a good set of replacement springs is fine
