H&R make very high quality springs. Depends on how much you want to drop. Sportline is a low drop, while DMS is not that low, about 1". You will also nee to get LCA relocation brackets and a new panhard bar. I hear that the DMS won't drop the car enough to need these things.

You can find a ton of picture's of cars with these springs by using the search feature . I think just a month or so ago we had a big post of everyone's lowered car...

I had Sportlines, they were very low, low spring rate also, rear springs sagged over 6 months of sitting (not really driving). I tried to order G2 springs, they are on back order, no one has any idea when they will be in. I decided to go with H&R. 1.25" drop all the way around, stiffer spring than stock. I ordered them from turnermotorsports.com for $195. I don't have pics with the new springs on yet.

I have seen T/A with 315 w/o any rub problems. My 275 have rubbed though, so I think it is which end of the build spectrum your car lies.
