Those L-tuned springs are really offering a nice drop. Is that a 1.5 drop?

Rides damn close to stock. I LOVE them to death! I did my homework before I jummped on a coilover setup. The info that I gathered seemend to me that people thought that the HKS coilovers were too 'soft'. I thought to myself that my car is a luxary car, not a circut car, so I jummped on them and I dont regret it one bit!

Is it hard to drive around that low with a soft setup? I'm not low as you are and I scrape a bit on bumps and dips because it's not stiff enough. How much lower can you go?
