I ended up going with the H&R Super Sports and I absolutely love the look and the ride. Handles much better. It does take bumps harder but I normally avoid bumps as much as possible regardless. The rear tires definitely camber in a little bit after lowering the car. I put 30mm H&R spacers in the rear to make the tires sit flush and they don't rub at all. I drove the car very hard after installing the spacers to make sure.

Just get sportlines if you want looks. It's what I have and I still kinda want more low.

I have B+G S2 lowering springs on my car a bit soft at first but after letting them settle in car handled great and looked amazing with the 1.4 drop in the front and rear of course rides a little harsh now but something you pretty much get with all lowering springs + stock shocks

That's actually my car in the before and after pics

Google Search "Eibach Sagging" and read some experiences from others....then think about if you still want the springs. Just telling you because I'm having an issue with the rear sagging after 2 months of being installed and a quick Google search made me realize I'm not the only one. I wish I knew about that problem before I purchased...so hope this helps you decide before you purchase.

Already purchased and installed Wednesday it doesn't look bad but I can def tell ... I'll see how it looks when I put my summer setup on.
