Springs with the lowest drop
Im looking for a slightly improved stance retaining most of the stock characteristics (including being able to make it over bumps). I know im not in the most rural area (Los Angeles) but my daily routes involve a plethora of speed bumps which id like to be able to go over at a comfortable pace (not a full stop). So my question is, what are some good springs, that lower my car the least amount? (Preferable a little less than an inch)

hmmmm sprint makes these...i think they are a 2 inch drop...also, if you plan on changing out the springs you might as well do the shocks as well...i believe koni. as well as tein has full suspension set ups for your 8.....

Keep in mind though, at 19", with 35 series or less tires, you're not going to have much "rim" protection. And you being in LA, you gotta watch those damn pot holes. One hard bump, and you'll be spending $150 to fix the rims.

im thinking 10.5 staggered rear (racing harts)
but drop it 1st before installing wheels.
p.s im not a fan of sprint suspension
i have had luck with tanabe never tried mazdaspeed.
