My Megan Racing coilovers can slam the crap out of a Yaris (if that's what you want). I have my rear end up nearly all the way, and my fronts are towards the middle.

I run on the street at about 8 F and 10 R if I remember correctly. I bump the dampening up a few clicks for autocross. I haven't had a whole lot of seat time with this setup at autocrosses, so I'm not sure what works best yet.

You may want to look into air ride sytems if you really want to go low...

That's my car in the pic. I was actually running the Cusco coilovers when that pic was taken but go for the Silkroads, they go even lower and have more features like dampening adjustable shocks and height adjustable sway bar links.
Cali Yaris at Micro Image can set you up with them

BTW, I drove the car lower than that for over 8 months on that setup, no problems as long as you're carefull going over big speed bumps and steep driveways.

Definately go for coilovers. Springs would not give you as much control, so you'd probably be rubbing all over. Go for coilovers, and wide rims, stretch your tires, go get that hella flush look! By the way riding low it expected that you will have to sacrifice some degree of comfort on the ride because the lower you go, the stiffer your suspension has to be to avoid bottoming out. But I say go for it!
