That looks like one of the sleeve kits. I'm unaware of those things doing anything good, ever.

Similar to KW's sleeve kit. I like that you have some options on spring rates with ERS springs, but really, with the EDC dampers you're not going to improve much if at all.

0-1.75 Drop that pretty good in terms of height range and for 1100 seems good. I had ground control coilovers on my e46 m3 and loved them. I would be curious to see if anyone has any photos of someone lowered in this kit.

This is a good read if you haven't already, regarding sticking with stock strut/shocks and lowering the car.

depends on what you want to do with the car. just lower it? its going to be fine. if you track your car, the money is better spent on true coilovers. the oem valving just isn't that great.
