Default Lowering car with 20's

I am thinking about lowering my car with 20" Iforged Revolutions. But cant decide on RSR or Tein H tech springs.

The specs on my car: Front: 245/35/20 nitto 555 and Rear:295/30/20 Toyo Proxes 4
I dont know what the offsets are...

If anyone has this setup and has their car lowered could you please post pictures? It would help me out on deciding which springs to get.

Thanks

I'm running Volk GT-C 19" Front: 245/35/19 Toyo Proxes and Rear:275/35/19 Nitto NeoGens lowered with the Tein S Tech springs and it rides just fine. This setup gives me right at 4" clearance on the corners up front and about 1/2" less dead center because of the chin spoiler under the bumper.

Since the car does have a lip kit, i dont want the car to be too low. I would like to able to jack up the car if i got a flat tire on the road.

Here is a pic of mine(i have taken some new pictures with the lip painted but havent uploaded them to my computer)

With your body kit on it looks like it's putting you around the 4" range up front. With mine I could use my low profile floor jack to lift the car...but I would have to do it one side at a time. I want to be able to get to either the front or the rear center jack points to lift the car's front or rear as necessary. I ended up building a set of ramps using 2x12s and 1x12s. I drie the car up the ramps and then I have plenty of room for the low profile floor jack. Here's a pic.
