can someone list the available springs for 5th gens in order of drop height?
I've been doing a little research lately so here is what i know off the top of my head ( plus minus a few tenths.. everyone experiences different drops) :
From smallest drop, to being slammed:
Maxspeeds 1.2" front - 1.4" rear
Eibachs 1.3 front - 1.3" rear
H&Rs 1.4 front - 1.5" rear
Tein H-Tech - 1.6" front - 1.0" rear?
B&G - 1.6" front - 1.6" rear
Sprints - 1.8" front - 1.6" rear
Tein S-Tech - 2.2" front - 1.8" rear
again.. people will dissagree with me, everyone has a different conception on exactly how much their cars were dropped.. but that is about how the scale goes...
also.. seems like springs that have an equal front and rear drop, actually make the car sag in the rear after it's lowered.. so it's best to get springs that drop the car more in the front than the rear for it to sit more leveled.
i may have also left out something.. not sure.
and another thing.. i would not base my decision solely on the drop the springs give, but i'd take ride quality into consideration aswell.. for example, Eibachs and Sprints are probably the stiffest, Maxspeeds and H&Rs are the softest.. etc..
hope that helped..

sometimes they look different also because of the sidewall of the tire on the rim people are running.
for my sprint springs, it looks slammed with the stock 17's, but slap 18's on with 245/45 and you'll have a 1-2 finger gap
