I have a pair of 1LE rear springs. They were supposed to lower the car a bit but I didn't find that they did. Stiffer spring rate, for sure. $40 plus shipping.

To be quite honest, I have no idea. I purchased them off of eBay because my car came with a set of Global West Comp springs. While the Global springs have a perfect stance, they are very stiff. I wanted something with a more compliant ride. The 1LE's were stiff but not as stiff as the Global springs but the ride height increased to stock or near stock level. I didn't like that. So back went the Global West springs.
