lowering help
So while I wait for my wheels to arrive, I am now looking at lowering options. Coilovers seem to give you most adjust-ability in ride height, dampers setting etc but since I don't track the car might be a waste of $$$.
My car has PASM and PDCC - with 21's coming in a week or 2 need to get my options sorted out. I want no finger gap as close as possible. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thank you

Probably H&R is the best fit as its the most aggressively lowered option for springs.
I have Eibach - love them. TechArt is made by Eibach and is well liked here as well. A tertiary option is KW with HAS.

One other tidbit is that there is an adjustable perch on the rear that should be used to ensure the car doesn't have weird rake.
I haven't had any experience with HAS and there have been very few reports but the spring rate is in line with the others so I don't believe the ride quality will be materially different.

In order of most aggressive drop to most conservative: HR > TA > Eibach. Also know that TA and Eibach are progressive rates. This is also the order of most aggressive spring rate to most conservative in addition to the drop.

Also couldn't find a YouTube vid showing spring installation on a 991 or 991.2, only a 997 so far.
