Default lowering springs

i just installed 19" axis shine rims on my Z. It looks great but i needs to be lowered about 1". Which gives the best drop eibach or Tien. other brand suggestion welcome.

I have eibach and i think it looks perfect! The ride was really nice at first - better than stock springs (using stock struts still), but the buckles in the freeway are getting to me now *thud....thud....thud*. Damn Wisconsin roads. It still is a good ride though, just wish it was a bit better.

I have the RS-R's Ti2000 and love them, but they only give about a .6" drop.

.6" drop, to me, is the perfect daily driving drop. I still have trouble with speed bumps and my driveway.

I would recommend the Eibach's also, if your looking for 1''. But get ready to also buy at least a rear camber kit and toe bolts.

When I installed mine, my camber was not bad at all in the fronts and I could hold out awhile for the front camber/caster kit.
