Hey guys just wanted your input on what type of springs i should get along with a good looking drop, i know alot of people have the teins with 1.4 in the front and .9 in the rear but i was thinking of 1.5 or 1.75 all around what do you guys think?

It really depends on the look you want and what driving conditions you plan on seeing the most. Dropping the front more than the rear gives the car a much more aggressive stance. While the same drop for all 4 is more subtle

I personally have the Eibach Sportline 1.5" drop on 17" wheels. I think it's the perfect fit for the car's body style. It tucks the wheels nicely, but is still plenty tall for speed bumps and crappy roads. The thing I liked most about these springs was the ride quality is still very comfortable for daily driving - the more you drop the car the stiffer it will be.

(BTW, I believe Tenzo offers 1.75" all around springs which I hear are of equal quality to Eibach and Tein)

x2, however also take note on body kits / lip kits.. I have the 404 lip kit with Tein S Techs.. Its low and I have problems with steep driveways, big speed bumps, etc.. I would def not want to be any lower..
