dont know espelirs...
eibachs are popular on our cars cause they give about a 1" drop, which is just about what the car needs to get rid of the gap.

I don't know that much about which rims with which springs. You shouldn't need to drop it too much with 19's. I think you would be fine with a .5 inch drop, in which case the kg/mm sport springs will do the job. A 1-1 1/2 drop may be too much of a drop. I'm thinking you will get some rubbing.
