Default H&R or Eibach Pro Kit??

Need a little assistance on picking lowering springs for my car. I have narrowed it down to either H&R sport springs or the Eibach pro kit springs. Just put my new 18" black saleens on my car and I still have one hell of a gap between the tire and wheel well. The H&R springs lowers my car 2" on the front and 1.6" on the rear while the Eibach springs lowers my car 1.3" in the front and 1.4" on the rear. Im thinking the H&R springs since the size of the gap is huge but then again, I don't know if the tires will rub or anything. Take a look at the picture and let me know what you guys think. Thanks.

My drop was around the same as h&R springs and the tires dont rub at all. It looks 1000x better without that huge gap.

Don't get the HR sport springs, either get the super sports or the race springs.

Definitely get the hr supersports. If your keeping your spring iso's in the hr's look perfect and with 18's you'll pretty much have no wheel gap.

I meant to say the supersports, not the sports. So I guess that's what I will be purchasing next. Thanks guys.
