That's quite a difference in products... I wouldn't waste your time/money on H&R. They barely even drop the car enough to notice, I would just leave it stock or pick a different spring instead. If you plan on doing coilovers I would do some research on different coilovers, it seems if you are looking at H&R you are concerned about ride quality and teins are probably some of the harshest.

I know a couple of I35 drivers/members of this org who have this setup (h&r's on front + Illuminas all around) and yeah, is the most comfortable spring/shock setup for this ride. I know the drop is only 1.4' with this spring but will sure make that HUGE/HORRIBLE front gap dissapear.
At least will make the car look even to the back stock suspension which I like.

Yeah I understand wanting a mild drop and good ride. I was just throwing in my .02 as I have gone through a couple of spring combos and now am wanting coilovers so I can drop it as far as I want. I started out with maxspeeds and felt there was still too much fender gap. I wish I had just done coilovers from the beginning.

If i'm not mistaken, the teins are about the softest riding coilover out there..(talking about the basics right?)
