I've done some rough calculations and with an 8in spring at a rate of 8k would give you 1.5 inch drop and 5k would give 2.1inch.
if that actually worked we could get a nice aggressive look wile still maintaining performance.

Yeah i just lost some more weight off my yaris and my cusco's are fully maxed out (full drop) and I still have about a 1.5" gap in the front . I was checking summit racing.com and for $60ish per spring eibach make 6"-10" long replacement coilover springs with spring rate from 250lbs/in - 1500 lbs/in. I'll be getting some 6" long with 500 lbs spring rate for the front to really get my ride low and stiff
