tockio illumina springs...any good? how much drop?

[Tallen]

i am looking to buy that tockio illumina shock and spring package on ebay. i knwo the shocks are good, but what about the springs. they say they lower 1.5". is that too much?

should i get illumina shocks and coilovers? what do coilover springs do? this confuses me...sorry i am a suspension newb

any tips?

Coilovers allow you to raise and drop the car at will. 1.5 is not too much of a drop at all.

coilovers will give you a much worse ride than normal springs because they don't have a progressive rate spring in them. So coilovers are nice cause you can adjust the ride hieght but you will have a rougher ride. and springs are nice because they have a closer to stock ride but they can sag and you can't adjust them. btw 1.5" drop isn't bad at all. maybe not quite enough... for me at least.

Is 1.5 to low if I have a blitz kit?
