Default Lowering springs for SS

Hey guys I'm looking to close the gap in my wheelwell without giving up ground clearance so who makes the best 1 inch drop springs for a vert.

There are no good 1" drop springs. 1" drop all around,
means you'll come out dragging *** (see sig pic). If you
drop 1" in front and hose-mod the back, it'll look better.
This is my deal, attached pic.

SLP Eibachs were about 3/4" drop and looked pretty
good. Probably hard to find but likely to be cheap when
you do.

You may as well forget about not losing ground clearance
when lowering. That's pure fantasy.

I agree with every word jimmyblue said. I went with eibach pro up front and sprotlines out back. I looks perfect for me on my ss vert. I will post a pic soon for ya!

THanks for your help guys. I don't think your sig pic looks like your dragging much in rear. Do you drag places?
