tough call on that one.... I've heard great things about the Eibach, Skunk2 has a great name/reputation and tanabe would be the lowest on my list out of those three.
Depending on what you want to accomplish with the springs (aside from lowering/asthetics) I'm a BIG fan of H&R, they do take some ride quality away but deliver amazing performance.

Damn, wanna lower it more!?!?
My pro-kit brought it down as low as I am comfortable doing... Although, I also put my Koni's on the lowest clip setting possible as well...
good luck to ya!

Get bigger rims?
Also, you might wanna check your numbers again...
The Eibach Pro Kit is: 1.4" front, 1.2" rear
When settled, people say they really rest another 0.1-0.15" more.
The sport line will lower it almost another half inch easily in the front, but in the end it's your call.
I dunno.. I'd be afraid of rubbing tire any lower than that personally, but I don't know much bout that. Suppose worst case scenario you roll the fenders?

Of the 3 listed, I'd go with the Eibach's ...... Skunk2's are just as good, but are much stiffer. Personally, I'd use progress for a progressive spring rate spring.
