its not about the drop but rather the quality of ride and handling when it comes to the hfp suspension kit

You're not gonna get the largest drop with the HFP kit but it will offer you the best compromise in terms of performance all while being comfortable going over bumps.

You can get a lower kit but realize that when you go lower, the springs will be even more stiff. So if you go over a bump or go into a pothole, your ass will hurt bad. It also puts more stress on your suspension so it won't last as long if you're using the stock suspension with lowering springs.

Realize that the HFP kit is a full on suspension, not just lowering springs. There are other kits that will go lower but they're for race spec, not for daily drivers.

Also, you will not need front/ rear camber kits to correct your alignment unless you want race specs. IMO...The best thing is the HFP suspension will not effect you warranty.
