Springs or coil overs?

Better put on a helmet...the 'use the search feature' flames are going to be coming quickly. Springs are less expensive but the drop is static. I have Swifts and love

Springs are less expensive but the drop is static. I have Swifts and love them. The drop is 1.2" in the front and 1" in the rear. The car in your picture might be dropped .25" more but someone else will likely pull out a ruler and tell you.

Most people go 15mm in the front and 20mm in the rear for spacers but 20mm/20mm is also very common. Looking at my car I think 20mm in the front and 25mm in the rear would get them truely flush. Dunno.
