997S Lowering springs(I want a minimal amount of drop to preserve ride)
I have done some prior research in past threads, I am still not sure what the final facts are:
(1) Do Cargraphic Springs lower the 997S the least amount ? Please give an estimate, in inches, the to total amount these springs will lower the 997S...
(2) Will the Cargraphic Springs cause PASM error codes ?
(3) Best place to purchase Carpgraphic Springs:
Roads in my State are not what one would call smooth...more money is spent hiring traffic police(avg traffic/motorcycle cop earns @$96,000 yearly)giving speeding tickets to Yukon Denali's with personal plates..than is being spent to maintain streets/infrastructure...I want/need to maintain a reasonable ride on bad roads...Please accept my thanks for your help.

I have H&Rs and the ride isn't all that much worse than stock. The car sits about 1" lower and has a tendency to scrape the soft plastic airdam under the nose. No PASM error codes at all.
I may be wrong but I thought that the Cargraphic springs were in fact made by H&R and were identical to those sold under the H&R brand.
If you don't want much of a drop I might suggest you save your $$$.

Cargraphic just signed a new U.S. distributor. I ordered a set of springs from them today for $389 plus tax and shipping. The Cargraphic springs are made to spec by H&R but are not the same spring rate. Both H&R and Cargraphic springs lower the car about 25mm (PASM equipped cars) and 30mm for non-PASM cars. SUPPOSEDLY - Cargraphic spec springs offer the best overall ride. Here's the dealer details:
