Eibach are pretty good on the handling, visually pleasing... not the lowest either. For being a mainstream brand, I was quite surprise on the quality.

I want to go as low as possible but not affect MRS. If it's a full inch, then It is what it is, if its only half an Inch... that is fine too. But I figured maybe someone in here with a 1Le has a nice drop and car still runs nice on track.

The ones that come with coilovers so you can match the correct damping rates?

A couple helpful threads already here, just search "Lowering Springs" in this sub-forum.
Just know you cannot lower the car without affecting the MRC. Only you can decide what is enough drop, and how much difference(affect) is acceptable.

That is my fear mucking up an ready good suspension setup. I want to get the center of gravity down a bit... The H&R site says the 1LE springs drops the car 1.25 inches. That seems like a lot...

Changing springs will compromise the handling, period. But if it is just a street driven car, the change will not even be noticeable. If you are only effecting a handling characteristic that shows itself at speeds you wont reach, then who cares right? Just depends on your intended use. I lowered my 5th Gen, and would lower a 6th Gen too if it was just a street car. It will still be an amazing machine on the streets, believe it.

I've been told the best track springs designed to work with MRC are the YYZ springs. They have a 1" drop
