Lowering spring question - Lil help please

Alright so i have been through this site searching all night and what i have found to be the lowest drop for a spring is the
H&R Sport which every seems to have or the RSR's 40mm (1.574in) which i havent been able to pind a picture on anybody's car. I refuse to believe this is all that can be done other than getting the Aspec shocks and then putting the H&R's over it which others have done as well because at that cost im at coilover $$ and whats the point then.
Has anybody seen anything else out there for the car? Maybe H&R plans to do a race spring which is their more aggresive drop series. I havent seen Tein make a spring other than their coilovers, has anybody heard of a spring at all cause i cant seem to find it. I just fail to give up and buy coilovers as im a set it and forget it kind of guy who will NEVER do any adjustment so whats the point and the money.
What about interchagable? Remember when you could swap civic/integra springs.. how about TL/Accord... so why not RL/???dumptruck? im just looking for a solution. Who has the secret combination of at least a 2" drop or more? Thank you in advance for any help and yes i did search, quite a bit actually.

H & R is coming out with a new spring for the RL in 1 month according to a dealer I spoke to 10 minutes ago. That same dealer cancelled my order for the 50116.

Well, I was told they are pulling them off the market, so yes, that would make dealers out of stock.

I just got off the phone with H&R, not a dealer sir. They just informed me they havent pulled them off the market that they are just out of stock and they are not coming out with a new spring.

Well, unfortunately H&R cannot have as much faith in my eyes as a dealer who just gave me back $230.

Dealer has no reason to give me a BS excuse. As far as companies with new products, that's what they do all day, BS.

I'm not saying dealer is 100% right, but I will sit there and wait a month. Springs off my list.
