Lowest drop from springs
Hey guys Im in search for some springs and I just wanted to see whats the lowest drop I could get from a set of springs would be before I go coil in the future.

Thats pretty typical from what I've seen for the most part... would be nice to see some comparison photos besides for the swift and H&R's.
I guess I should have just asked if any springs offer more than 1 inch drop?? |

My final settled drop for the Swifts came to 1.3" front and 1.1" rear but the H&Rs will drop the Z even further while being a performance orientated spring.

But yeah I hear H&R's are great but performance swift feels a little better.... but yea I guess most of it would come down to opinion... |

I would be happy to sell you mine used for cheap... I am planning on switching to coilovers... The drop is pretty good, my photos may not do it justice though bc I have the Amuse kit on there which decreases my clearance as well.

Well I thank you for the offer but Im not planning on purchasing anything used, or even make a purchase until I even know what I want lol... but I will def keep you and the others selling their springs if I end up on a budget.

Does lowering with springs require re-alignment ? I just go for looks, but does it do any damage in the long run, like unevenly wear tires and crap like that ??
