RS-R Down/Ti2000 or Tein H-tech?
I am torn between the two. I'll be matching them with Tokico Illuminas. Here are the specs on both springs(Down and Ti2000 are the same - just different materials):
RS-R:
Estimated Front Drop - 20mm(0.8in)
Estimated Rear Drop - 15mm(0.6in)
Front Spring Rate - 6.24kg(349lbs)
Rear Spring Rate - 4.67kg(261lbs)
Tein H-tech:
Front Drop: 0.8 in
Rear Drop: 0.7
Front Spring Rate: 7kg(391lbs)
Rear Spring Rate: 5.2kg(291 lbs)
What do you think would be better choice? My car will be mostly daily driver with occasional track days - hence the reason why I'm going for a mild drop and spring rates.
Thanks in advance!

I would recommend the RSR Down Springs over the H-Tech:

Thanks Mahjik for the link. The overall stance looks GREAT.
neoamd, I don't like the uneven stance as it drops the front a lot more than the rear. So I'm going with different springs.

My fenders will be rolled also.
