I have the 210's. They ride nice but they will not give you an inch or more drop. The drop is very modest (on stock shocks anyways). Around 3/4 inch. Link in my sig has a few pics.

In that price range the best is RSR or Tein IMO

But if you have a bit more $$$ spend it on the swift

I was going to recommend espelirs but since you said neuspeed springs aren't low enough for you, then you probably will not like espelirs.

If you wanna go really low. You shouldn't just get springs. Get coilovers. Especially if you think Neuspeed isn't low enough. I do have the Eibach's.

I see,all you want is LOW & CHEAP;take it to the nearest garage,and have them torch a good 2" off your stock springs.!!
Oh,and make sure you keep your OEM shocks.!!!
