I like what I’m reading here. Speaking from 4 years of SCCA RallyCross experience with the FRs more ground clearance would be great!

Ricepudding: most of such are 1) with custom rates, built to order, 2) stronger to handle rally-ish abuse .. think of 7.5-15K for set. And even then they often are overhauled every 1000km. Spring & damping rates are far from being compliant for daily driving though, so despite their coolness and what miraculous maneuvers & bad road surfaces & speeds they can handle, i find hard to imagine someone installing these in daily drive, even if one can stomach the price. From this class i'm more used seeing Ohlins TTX on local rally prepped subbies & evos though.

I just got back from my first rally-x in the BRZ. I would buy these if they were close to stock spring rate but gave more ride height. The stock setup was really good (for me) but a little low. I was definitely not craving more oversteer. The car was very neutral.

Unlike taller tires, spacers or longer springs don't change gearing ratio to taller, which affects acceleration. That will help with stock relatively low NA power. Tire weight and cost also is kept lower. That's why i'd prefer those for more ground clearance over taller tires.
