I have the S Tech's and have felt very little difference (if any) versus the stock ride.
That means that they are doing precisely what they were designed to do.

I just have lowering springs, no expensive coilovers, and I love it. My car is lowered on Neuspeed 1.5" drop. I've had it for 3 years and haven't ever scraped on anything. Of all the lowered cars I've had, this one is the best riding. No scraping and no tire rubbing ever. It probably helps that I don't have a lip and my rims are custom made for S2k fitment.

I'm sure coilovers are better and I know my car is slower around a track than at it's stock height, but I think it's great how it is.

My car is dropped on eibach pro kit springs. I have 17 inch work emotions. Yes it rubs. Yes I have trouble making it over some speed bumps. It still rides very well. However I will say if you rub at all roll the fenders. Overall I love the look and the handling.

Well through all this im still confused..i can't get a clear answer on whether my car will handle better or worse than stock. At the same time if i did go with the springs, i still can't decide between the eibachs or the teins..eibachs have the warranty but seem to drop lower than my interest, and the teins are only covered for a year
