IMO, the "best" drop is 1" - 1.5". The stock gap on my 2007 TL-S is ~2" to 2.25". I say best based on looks and functionality. I think the "best" drop is a little like the "best" wheels - everybody has a different objective and a different opinion.

The Eibach Pro-Kit drop is advertised at 1". H&R Sport Springs are 1.4" Front / 1.3" Rear. I think Comptech are about 1". Most everything else I found is greater than 1.5".

In any case there is a risk of premature shock wear - the more the drop the greater the risk. Most will recommend a shock/spring combination; Koni Yellow are popular. So are Coil-Over's (Tein or H&R usually).

Check the forum vendors - Excelerate; AcuraTLParts and Mr. Heel Toe for prices. Based on the shopping I've done they are competitive.

Quickest, best value way to improve handling is to upgrade the Rear Sway Bar - Progressive (24mm) or Comptech (22mm, I *think*). It's cheaper than springs too.

I've got the Progress RSB with Energy Suspension greasable bushings on the way. Planning to order H&R Springs either this week or next. That means my comments are based on the reading I've done, not personal experience.

Tein S-Tech lowering springs and koni yellows look the best imo
im dropped 1.5 in the front and 1.25 in the back and the stance is perfect

I've had the Tein coilovers for 40K+ miles and they are great...adjustable ride height and stiffness. I also have the comptech RSB, probably the best mod for $$

A lot of guys are running tein ss coilovers, others tein basic coilovers, some others are running h&r coilovers, a good majority is running stock or aspec shocks on upgraded springs

Me I would say the best drop is with the koni yellows + eibach/comptech/h&r springs
Height and damper adjustible

This is what I'm running.

Moved to suspension forum, deleted your other thread, and merged with the thread you already started in the suspension forum.

Height adjustable...? Maybe I'm a fool, but I thought you could only adjust height with coil overs.

BrianC636

The SP3 Koni's have adjustable spring pearches. Not quite as fine tuned as a coil over but I think they have 5 adjustments on them. Stock ,+/- 0.3, and +/- 0.6

Koni Yellows and Eibachs or Tein Coilovers

The "regular" Koni's are adjustable as well. 3 positions instead of the 5 with the SP3.

IIRC, the "regular" Koni is up to a 20mm adjustment.
