s-tech too low for daily?

I running on stock suspension right now. I was planning to get some s-tech springs but I am afraid the drop will too crazy for daily driver. I plan to keep the stock touring shocks with the springs.

I dont know what S-Tech springs are, but I have H&R 1.25" drop on my car with 18" rims and I think its too low, it rarely scrapes but If i went any slower over some roads i'd be going backwards. If my car was at stock height it'd be fine with the 18's. But then again I dont like the "slammed" look.

I also have the h&r's and my car sits higher than yours, I have 17-inch wheels though but overal diameter should be the same.

I changed all 4 upper and lower mounts at the same time maybe that made it sit higher...

i have tein s-techs on kyb shocks, on 16inch ssr integrals, call my crazy but i find it very practical, i rarely scap going over speed bumps or anything like that, the only thing you have to look out for is pulling in and out of driveways, but otherwise iam very happy with the springs......
