Default lowering springs

YES, i did a search! i was wondering which lowering springs are good? i am looking for a 1" - 1.5" drop. I was leaning toward the Tein S-Tech springs, but i dont know much about them. i wont mind a harsher ride, but i would like to keep the ride feel like stock. any info would be greatly appreciated!
I have a stock MY04 btw.

From what I've heard, the S-Tech's don't offer that much of a drop at all.

Our new vendor ( Import Tuning Garage ) is selling them for a good price. They claim it lowers F 1.2 /R 0.98, pretty nice drop to me.

Ive had Teins on my RSX and 99 Si and i was pretty happy with the ride quality and drop,not to mention its JDM,I think you wont be disappointed with it,especially for its price.

Drop looks very nice and Tein has a good reputation.
