I like the Sport Springs with these wheels...I don't care to go any lower. Here's a smaller pic, but kind of shows how it is sitting now. The back fender gap is the same as the front, but the shadow of the tire makes it appear wider.
I was wanting a bit more spring rate but also didn't want a big ride height drop. I had retrofitted some sport springs (initially car was non-sport suspension) but it ended up sitting abt the same as original b/c they were for a heavier car. So I went with the BMWP springs. May be a slight bit lower than I'd consider ideal, but, still good and works well with the Koni Yellows (also no color clash )

Your car looks good - I especially like ARC-8's!!
