Im on steeda sports which are 1 inch in the front and i scrape pulling into some driveways/ and if i go over a speedbump slightly too fast, the car will come down and hit metal to the speed bump. K springs would do this a bit harder so youll have to be careful. It will look awesome though. And if you get new rims and tires go with larger overall height tires, id suggest 28.1 inch height tires to give a bit more ground clearance while also taking away a bit more wheel gap to make it look great.

FRPP K SPRINGS 1.5"
FRPP SHOCKS AND STRUTS, SVE LCA, BMR PAN HARD
After riding in a car with linear (and adjustable Koni's that were set to soft for the street), the progressive springs are a lot better ride quality.
If I were to track the car constantly I would go with the substantially worse ride of linear springs...
But for the street and occasional track, The progressive springs are a lot better ride while still being a HUGE improvement in handling at the 1.5 drop.

is your car a brembo car? if so then just springs and panhard. If not a brembo, consider different dampers. I've noticed all the brembo people just swap on the springs and panhard and are happy. the non-brembo people all complain of too much bounce.
