If you say soi'm not going to bother reading all through here, BUT- SPORTLINES ARE THE ONLY SPRINGS TO BUY. Period. i've tried prokit, H&R SS, they all don't look good. better than stock, but did not take the wheel gap away. Inside, i believe that H&R super sport is probably a better quality spring, because of all the ppl who keep telling me that, but it is UGLY. Even Sportlines ARENT low enough, you will have quite more than a 1" wheel gap EVEN with sportlines. ProKits are a joke. Go with sportlines, not because its the best quality, but they are the only ones that look good. H&R look good on pics, but pics lie alot since It's all in the angle pictures are taken. I've seen H&R in person, on my car, my dads car, lots of other friends cars i meet up with on car meets on saturdays, and maybe its because i use to be into imports, but they are not low enough. Looks a little lower than the prokit i guess, but not by much.
Sportlines or nothing. (unless your considering coilover)

Damn right i say so. Sportlines go lower than HR. Thats a fact, and the specs say so. He wants it lower, so he obviously believes lower looks better. I've had experience with them, and they were just slightly lower than the pro kit.. just enough to give it a nicer stance, but still not what i wanted. I think he's going to be as dissapointed as i was. I wish someone bluntly told ME the facts before i spent 500 dollars on springs that suck. Good thing is springs are easy to re sell.
No decent looking wheel will give you your goal of 1" to 1.5" wheel gap on ANY HR spring, or Eibach for that matter, but the sportlines will put you closer. unless you high profile 18s, and a LCA in the rear and x2 ball joint in the front with sportlines all around, you can kiss your 1.5" goal good bye.
This is the best pic i have found of sportlines that show their true look- the picture is taken at level stance, the car is on level ground- no eye tricks. pay attention, not to the car, but if you have a good monitor, take a look, a really good look at the wheel gap in the rear. Then look at the wheel gap in the front. HR super sports will be slightly higher, every 1/10 of an inch counts. It sucks when you buy springs, then look at your car later and your like "crap, i shoulda bought lower springs"

The sportlines are also alot more friendly for drag racing. Forget about that feeling you get when the front end of your car lifts up when you launch at the strip- the spring rate 700+ on the HR SS keep you planted- which is nice when road racing, but it is a stiffer spring. Eibach is only a bit stiffer than stock, but you still get some weight transfer.
