If you are looking at another spring other than the Stech I would look into the RS*R downsprings. .6 drop F/R. I just ordered some directly from RSR since many vendors are out of stock.

and you would be COMPLETELY wrong as far as ride quality

the S Tech's happen to be among the nicest riding springs out there, regardless of the brand, and work amazingly well on these cars

So i wanna make sure im reading this right.

If i go more than .8 inches on a drop then i will need to buy a camber kit?

and i want a slightly more aggressive drop then the Stechs will give...what should i get? i was thinking about tanabe, but they will drop approximately 1 inch.

will this affect VDC at all?

I was told S tech only gave a .8 drop. 2.2 seems WAY too much.
