I'm using Tein Stech springs. lower about 1". Weird thing, with stock Oem wheels there were two fingers gaps in between the top tire and top wheel fender wall. Now with the 18" wheels i could only put 1 and 1/2 fingers in between. Stech springs are on the soft side compare to the KG/MM race springs. I'm running 18x8 225/40 front and 18x9.5 back 255/35 and so far no rubbing issue.

I had the Tanabe GF and REALLY liked them (ff2skip got me to try them out). They lowered the car about a little less than 1.5 inches...no rubbing and the ride was as good as stock. I still have them (I went with Konis and different springs) if you want them.
