go with roush springs , but i actually found some springs that drop a car about .8 inches in d back and 2 in d front. They were coilovers on ebay. Do some research on ebay and u might be lucky and still find them. I'm not sure about the weight on the aftermarket springs I guess it all depends on d brand.

I put BMR springs in mine, and love the stance now. 1.25f and 1.75r is what they claim, but mine actually dropped 1.3f and 1.9 rear once they "settled" (after about 200 miles or so). Very happy with the ride and it got rid of the "*** high" stance that all the 05 up have.

Do you have any pictures of your car lowered? I watched the slide show in your sig, but the effects made it aggravating to try and focus on anything

no. most springs do drop you a lot more in the front than the back. most poeple do go for the higher in the back than the front instead of just flat. ive got roush springs and they give a pretty good stance. it will look a lot better w/ wheels though.
