Even with your front lip? I'm on stock height right now with an OEM front lip and I have to go off driveways at an angle or I'll scrap!

I'm also thinking about lowering my car with springs and I'm stuck between Tein S tech and Swift. Espelirs give it too much of a drop for my tastes if I been reading right.

Does anyone have their opinions on the Teins?

I did a lot of reseach before buying my springs and ended up with swifts! Best springs I've ever had on any of my cars! Im upgrading to coilovers now cuz I got really lucky, but for anyone who's looking into gettting just springs and want to keep the integrity of their cars oem suspension in mind, I would definitely recommned swifts hands down. IMO!
