Lowering spring for 9 Gsr

I searched around and found out that Ebachi and Tein is bad choice for spring. I read that they break ur stock shock easily. So my choice was swift, Tanabe, work. Out of all Tanabe GP210 was least expensive and was in my target price.
Hows Tanabe GP210? for 9 Gsr. Got new rims and tires few weeks ago and now my front is way higher than way it was.
I'm just looking for around 1 - 1.5 drop that is good match with stock shocks(checked chart and GP210 was in the range too)

Thanks!

We're talking low prices here anyway no matter what you get - they're just springs - so why not get good springs. Nothing good about Tanabes. Go with at least Robispec, Swift, or Works if you want at least some small semblance of performance improvement while accomplishing your cosmetic goal of lowering the car.

GTWorx recently released their springs which are supposed to be pretty good and just a little stiffer than the Swifts. However, they won't lower your car much as they are more performance oriented.

I have the swifts and they are slightly more expensive than the tein but are supposedly designed around the stock shocks, they are lighter as well by around 6 lbs for the set, they would suit your needs quite well.
