Springs and suspension

i was just wondering what type of springs people are using on their tl's...I was thinking of getting a prokit, but i'v noticed that a lot of people use H&R.......i wanted to drop the car lower, thats why i thought i would get the prokit but then i thought i would need a camber kit, cuz on my last car i slammed it with ground control and by the time i got my camber kit, wires were coming out of my front tires....What would you guys recomend, cuz i am not trying to lower this car too much, but just enough for a one finger or two finger gap between the wheel well....
thanks for your help

It feels stiffer than stock during turns, but not harsh. I compared it with a TL-S at the last meet in a section of twisty roads. My car (with H/R sports only, stock sways) felt more on track than the TL-S. The TL-S (with stock springs and sways) has a lot of oversteer and at the limit of oversteer during recovery the tail end wiggled. Check with NeoTLS. He rode in my car and can prob give you better description on how he felt.
