Not so agressive of a drop around 1-1.2 inch but still maintains a good ride is what Im lookin for. What are you guys dropping your cars with?

Thanks ,
Ken

I have Brabus sport springs, but I wished I had bought the complete suspension system. That is the way to go. I'm in the process of buying just the brabus suspension system to go with the brabus shocks I already have. Though, Brabus is a great brand name, I think eibacs are better and looks better on the car.

Hey frisco, which springs do you have on now? Any rubbing? I can't decide on what to go with. I don't want too harsh a ride but price is a concern as well.
