Default Drop Springs

Want to buy drop springs but dont know what to get to give me the best stance. I want something aggressive but not too low. I would like to give the car a nice rake, having the front a smidge lower then the rear. I have looked into some and seen the thread on the suspension page, but nothing really jumps out at me. If possible post pics so I can see. Here is a pic of my car, as you can see its WAY too high.



Thanks for any help.

I have the DMS (Dynamic Motorsports) springs and my car sits really good. I had the Eibach Sportline kit and I absolutely hated it. Rough as hell everywhere I went and messed my headers up too. I think Hotchkis and the Eibach Prokit will be about the same drop also..
