Default Tein S Techs or Goldlines?

OK I'm gonna order springs next week and I cant decide between the S Techs or Goldlines. I did a search and found these springs to be most popular.

My main concern is avoiding rubbing/scraping. I have Motegi rims 17x7, 42 offset on 205/45/17 tires. Does anyone have this wheel setup and have rubbing issues with a 1.5 or 2 inch drop?
If not, then my 2nd concern is ride comfort. Which one provides the more comfortable ride?

Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

with that narrow of a tire you shouldnt have much of a problem at all even with close to a 3 inch drop. i'd go goldline. or better yet tanabe df210's

You need as low as you can get with the xA. I suggest the goldlines.
