I have H&R sports. The ride quality is awesome. Stiffer than stock, but still very comfortable. I wish they were lower. Theres like a one finger gap in the front and a 1.5 finger gap in the back. Overall, H&R's are a great option if you wanna close the wheel gap.

Thanks. Yeah I'm running -2.1 camber in the rear (natural camber.) If you lower your car without a camber kit, you will almost always have negative camber in the rear.
Thanks! Its an "HD" pic from my "Canon Powershot SX510HS." Its a point and shoot camera. Im not sure if its capable of capturing high resolution photos, however, I have the picture quality set to the highest HD setting.

I don't even see it. Lol.... I know sportline camber will be worst since it has a lower drop.

As for the springs OP, I have Eibach Proline and am very happy with them. Great ride quality and zero issues. They are not low enough for the drop you want though.

You really can't go wrong with either lowering spring since both brands are well known and the difference in height is 0.1" between the two drops (1.4" vs 1.5"). Lol.
In reality, any slight drop will alter camber. Especially on the rear tires.

H&R springs are a 1.5 inch drop, sportlines are a 1.8 inch drop I thought

This seems to be correct, but when looking at pictures, H&R's and Sportlines (and road magnets) seem to have more or less the same drop. No tuck, sits right above the tire and you can still drive straight onto a speed bump (with no angling).

From my experience with lowering springs. you cant really go what they say because after the spring sits with the car its going to be lower. so it says the front say 1.5 in drop, after it sits its going to be like 1.7 up to 1.9 depending on your shocks and I think depends on your location as well. I had tein springs on my Nissan se-r spec V and Mazdaspeed 6. after like a month or so it had drop it was a bit more lower than what I had expected lol. I looking at h&r springs or sportlines for my si. still debating.
