debating on springs

so i am stuck on either swift springs and tein h. tech springs. I have seen pictures of the swift springs and i think they lower a little too much i really dont want to have to scrape every time i go into my driveway. Also i have never seen a picture of a fit on h. tech springs and they say it lowers 1.5 and they are very stiff. please help me on this decision and if you have pictures that would also help too.

Swift only lower about 1". It's the least amount of drop of any springs available.

yah, swift's drop is very mild. it's a noticable drop for a fitfreaker but
probably go undetected by most people out there.

Tein came out with the H-Tech springs for the Fit already?! I've been waiting for them for a while just to see how much the drop is. I don't wanna drop my car too low neither because of all the dips and potholes and all that good stuff when I'm in the LA area. Most likely I'll end up getting the Swifts if the H-tech ones don't come out soon enough..then save for something better.. boo for not being rich. =/

Just some information I thought might come in handy..

I was curious about those H-Tech ones and whether or not they even ARE coming out..so I called them The guy I was talking to said that from what he knew..there probably won't be anything else coming out for the Fit in a while other than what's already out :[

BUT HE COULD BE WRONG..NEVER KNOW
