Smaller drop then the GF210

Hello everyone, I just installed my GF210s and 1.5" is a bit more then I thought. What else is out there with a smaller trope ang a good spring rate? I was thinking about Espelir ASD but I heard that the drop is not reall .79 but more then 1 inch.

What do you guys suggest I should go with? Pics would be great

Here's a pic with my Swift springs installed, not too low but took out the huge front wheel well gap:
Handles really well too. Peace.

My 210's were a little lower than expected, and the front end is a just a tad bouncy as well. I think I need to cut my bump stops a little more. I cut about 1in off, how about you?

Instructions say trim off 1.5 on the bump stop.
As for ride quality they are on the stiffer side, 30% over stock. But for street/strip/auto x, they work awsome.
I love mine, no complaints. Ride is nice and tight.
I also have the Hotchkis rear sway bar on the stiffest setting which also helps with feed back and oversteering.

My instructions said 1in, I am gonna have to try another 1/2. I know they are stiffer that is why I bought them. It just kinda feels like the car is riding on the bump stops... Thanks bro

Thanks for the replies guys, but swift springs have the same drop as the GF210s. I'm looking fro something not as agressive.
