What lowering springs should i get?!?! please suggestions

hi,
I have a 1991 rx7 convertible and i already have some nice koni adjustables on them but now I have decided i would also like to get lowering springs for the car. What do you guys recomend for the best handling/looks for under $500 and still have wheel well clearing so my tires do not hit. thanks.

almost all the lowering springs i have seen are under $250, i guess except for the GC Coilover spring setup.

I am going to try to pick up a set of RSR Race Springs soon.

I would personally recommend Eibach Prokit. Use the TII version not the N/A. Then adjust your Koni's for best ride and handling. You should see a drop of only about 7/8" max, but it looks good, rides firm and handles well.

I have these springs on my car with Tokico Blues and I think they are just right.

Good Luck
