Spring pics

I'm looking into getting either Eibach, H&R, or Comptech springs (leaning towards H&R). Can you guys post pics of any of these setups so I can see what the differences are? Also, I'm thinking about keeping the stock 2000 TL-P tires on it for a while until I get enough money for some Type-S tires. Thanks.

I just bought a set of H&R sport springs for my 03 Type S. I will post some before/after pics once I do the swap out.

What does the "raked" look mean? Does it mean the front is slightly lower than rear making the car slope downward? I hear the Comptechs do this. I like the last pic of the black TLS on H&R's. How much harsher are the H&R's than stock springs

Correct, and I agree the last pic is what I'm after too; an equal drop front and back. It was suggested to me earlier that H&R Sport Springs would achieve that look, but you would need the camber kit. I would like to see more pics with H&R's SS if anybody has them.

Tein springs or coilovers are not a bad choice either

Ok, I have a problem;
This weekend i can get my springs put on for free, but this also happens to be the same week that my tranny wants to start making grinding noises. i dont know what to do; take the car to the dealer and possibly have them replace the tranny, or put my springs on and take it to the dealer at a later time. this may be the only time i have the change to put my springs on for free.. what should i do

Uhm, yeah. Get the springs on free you can get the tranny replaced anytime (up to 100,000 miles )
