Eibachs are a progressive spring, so still a nice ride but not the lowest.

You can have comfort or drop it as low as you can. If you put as low as you want it'll handle like a pig though. Stick with the eibachs.

H&R 50mm springs drop the car the lowest.
See 'SSS' classic Turbo.

H&R's quoted 50mm drop is for the 'impreza' not the turbo... H&R's drop should be about 30mm, nice springs tho.

However if your user name is to go by, you have an MY06 Sti? If so best to go for Prodrive springs, manufactured by Eibach to Prodrive's spec. Great all round spring. But if you do want quite a drop for a newage car than Tein's will do this but the ride is no where near as good as the PDs.
