I had 30mm springs, now I'm on 45mm. Even that for me isn't low enough, so now looking into getting coilovers. It all depends on your preference. If you want a fixed height with subtle lowering, springs are definitely the way to go. Just me though, I feel almost forced to go lower haha.

Coilies are generally track orientated, whereas springs are easier to live with on the road IMO
