When I was doing some research for springs, I got dizzy flipping between pages. So I just decided to make the handy chart.

There are 2 sets of speed bump I go over every workday. Stock I used to go over then 15mph and it would just float over them. Now I have to slow down to 10mph. The first tryout at 15 was a harsh, didnt bottom out but not something that I want to do everytime.

Coil overs are pretty good I guess, allows you to dial in the amount you want. I wouldn't go lower than 2". The top of the tires is perfect IMO with the bottom lip of the wheel well. With adding up the cost of with system to make each system the same:

From Tire Rack

Rear Camber Adjusters $54
FRont $260

Cost $1736
---------------------------------------------

So for $1168 vs $1736 ($586 diff) I could lower my car 2". The only thing I'm
loosing out on is the adjustability. I bet that 95% of the people
with coils overs set them and leave them.

To me with the choices of 1" mopar, 1.3" Eibach Pro, 2" Eibach sportlines
to go with coil overs for the adjustability is plain silly.
