Default What springs w/ D specs?

Alrighty here is my problem.. I plan on putting d specs on my ride, but of course I want springs as well since I could do it all at once.. The only problem is Im not sure what springs to get. I want some that will lower the car to look good but, I dont want to be sitting on the cement.. I just feel that 1.5 inches in the back is too low to lower my car. But any imput that anyone has will be greatly appreciated.. thanx

From what you say you need Steeda springs. In order of firmness Ultralites < Sport < Competition. They all lower approx 1" all around.

I went with Roush springs with the Dspecs, but waiting for spring to install.
Supposedly also a 1" drop.

i went with H&R Race springs the most aggressive spring rate you can get, and just the perfect drop for handling. i scrape pulling into some driveways but thats because i get lazy and cut to early cornering it. otherwise its awseom

I went with H&R 1.8front 1.9rear with Bilstein struts. No rubbing issues or scrapping issue's of course I used to having lowered cars. Here is a pic to give you an idea what the drop looks like.
