Great info and pics. Thanks.

I think I'm leaning toward the Megans. I don't want to be bouncing around because my shocks can't keep it under control. Also, for my situation I don't think I can justify paying 50% more for "beefier" internals.

Any other reviews with just F-Sport springs (stock shocks)?

ive got fsport springs with stock shocks. i love the ride but just want to go lower. I've never sat in a car with coils so I wouldn't be able to compare the ride differences between the two. I've had the fsports for maybe half a year now and its great. I guess its all opinion and how rough or soft of a ride you prefer.

scale 1-10 (10 being the stiffest) stock- 3/Fsport springs with stock shocks- 5-6. never driven on coils over with the 2is but I've rode on tein and BCR on a s2k(slammed) and I think is about a 8-9

i'm also on f-sport springs (AWD) and i like the height for what it is, but the are a little rough/stiff. it took some getting used to. i've had them on my car for about a year now. i'm waiting for someone that has an AWD with BC or megas to chime in and say they're close to the stock ride...i'd change mines out if that was the case.

i agree. I think the f-sport is a good drop. if i get some more to chime in saying f-sport springs on stock shocks are fine that is what I am gonna do.
