Exclamation what spring are u riding on ur b14?

I'm riding on Gold Line Spring by Otto Racing with a 2" drop front and rear. I dont really like them cause the rear is lower than the front. I'm thinking about buying the TEIN with a 1.1" srop in the back and a 2.5" drop in the front. I'm was thinking about mix matching them because the 2" spring in the back scrapes my exhaust when i go over speep bump even when i go over them in an angle. So i was thinking about the TEIN 1.1" spring in the rear and the Gold Line Spring in the front. If any one has the TEIN's let me know ow they ride and if u can let me c a pic. Thanx for reading hope 2 c ur comments or suggestions

i am looking into the tein coilover system for my car. from what i've found, tein is a very good suspension company. i think you are right about switching your springs. you have to much drop. you should also add better damping. that is just as imortant as the springs. if you have enough $, you should just go with a coilover setup. it will give you a nice drop, and it will handle so much better.
