I had them on my 04 Sti prior to switching
to Cusco Coilovers...
As far as springs go, they are the best I tried...
1. They even out your stance...no saggy a$$ look... ~1.5 finger gap between the tires and fender.
2. Spring rate is excellent (no clunking or noise) and the car handles awesome. I would recommend getting a rear sway bar for really improving the handling of your car.
I've owned:
Espelier ASD Springs
TEIN S-Techs
TEIN Flex Coilovers
Prodrive Springs
and now Cusco Coilovers...
I really like my Cusco's but out of all the other's that I tried, my second choice would be the Prodrives...
My friend has the Prodrives for his WRX and his looks and works great as well...
highly recommended.
I picked mine up from www.mauromotorsports.com they typically ship for free...but to Hawaii, I only added in like $30 or so to ship...

Prodrives are going to be a safe drop
for your girl...
They are pretty much the lowest you can go without scraping on things...like inclines, concrete blocks, sidewalks etc...unless you have some nard that likes making tall cement things....
I noticed my exhaust never scraped or anything like that...but it is a noticable drop from stock...You won't find a better compromise between drop/handling/and daily driver needs...the others will either scrape, be too firm, not firm enough, noisy, or have the dreaded saggy a$$ look...heh heh

I've got Prodrives on my 03 WRX and I love them -- like the others said, perfect drop and improved handling. The ride is a bit stiffer, but not too bad. I noticed a more rougher change in ride when I upgraded to 17" wheels than when I upgraded to the Prodrives.
