Eibach Prokit - nice drop, great daily-driver street spring
GTWorx - slight drop vs. stock but good handing improvement

people keep telling me to get either the eibach prokits or the swift springs, but the drop on those look almost stock. looking for something with a little bit lower drop than those.

Get the Prokits then, they definitely have a nice drop. I have a set on my car and helped a friend install his set this weekend, below are his before/after pics:

^Yup. That's my car there. You can DEFINITELY see the difference. It's pretty obvious. So far in the 2 days I've driven on them, they don't feel much different than the stock ride. If anything it's a TINY bit softer but not enough to notice the difference really. Only thing I really have to do is be more careful on inclines and speed bumps. Other than that, they feel great to me.
