H&R Sport springs are suppose to be a minimal drop with a little stiffer rate, also progressive

Nice. I'll give those a look.

Coilovers are great and they offer a huge range of adjustability. Thing is, their capabilities are way more than I need so I can't justify the price. I'm stubborn and I don't want to sacrifice the current look of my car. I always hated that "sucked in" look where the wheels looked sucked into the fender. I understand why they do that but I always liked a flush look where the wheels are flush with the body panels, if not even maybe stick out a bit, hence the spacers.

Objectively it's a bad idea and I know that but I'm willing to take that sacrifice, but I do want to minimize rub as best as I can. I guess in that regard I'm a little bit like those "stance nation" guys. However, I don't like excessive camber or excessive lowering.

Side note, I am looking for good looking 15x7 set of wheels that I can use my existing tires on, but have the same effective offset as I have now minus the spacers (and hideous hubcaps)
