Springs?

I just picked up my first FD and the struts have already been switched to Tokico 5 way adjustables. I would prefer coilovers but I think springs would be best for now. I have stock wheels too. I see everything from 1-2" drops, I'm leaning toward Tein S 1.4/1.3". Good idea?

If you just want a low drop, that will work. However, the ride will be fairly rough and you won't really be able to use the softer Tokico settings as your car will bottom out on dips when driving. I currently have this setup (Tokico Illuminas & Tein S-Tech springs).

Thanks for the reply, I don't want to dump it but I'd like to get rid of some of the fender gap. I'm the only one that drives the car and it is not my daily driver so the comfort level is not too important. Handling and appearance is what I'm going for.
