Only one GTWorx spring. And its not 2.0 its 20mm or ~0.8in up front and 15 mm or ~0.6in in the rear drop. All accounts I have heard is - very good.

If you are looking for more drop - Swifts:

Swift Sports: 179-269, 207-319 (157-314 for MR). -1.4, -0.8 drop.
Swift Spec R's: 157-358, 196-380 (153-380 for MR). -1.4, -0.8 drop.

We have Eibach pro on our car and they are a nice progessive. Would work better with a set of H/D struts, ie: Bilsteins or KYB AGX (which are not made anymore, shame), the low rate is the very start of the progression, they start to stiffen up quickly, I will find my notes and list the increased rate of them.

Id have Tein or H&R or Eibach any day, or Ralliart for shear driving joy.

Why would you want to do that? 8/10 is pretty good. If you lower the front, I would also lower the rear rates. Eg. 6/8.
