Default Goldline, Rs-R, or Espelir springs? what do you guys think?

I've come down to these 3 springs because you all have said great ride and great drop. I want a 2" drop so these are my three springs of choice. I have 18's right now but I am going to buy a set of 17's with larger tires for ride quality next year. So what do you think - which one of these 3 springs is the softest ride?

I've heard Goldlines have the softest ride for the drop they provide... but if you want to go with 215/17/45's like I have the fit might be a bit snug (can barely fit a pinky between mine and the inner lip with a decent rear wheel offset...)
You might want to consider tein s-techs with the comfy tires, my setup is great so far. Some better shocks (konis) and it'll be about ideal...

Pic- little low in the back from school stuff in the trunk



Closeup of rear setup- these are 17x7.5 45offset with 10mm shims and 5mm spacers (=30 offset)



I don't know if you're planning on pulling fenders or messing with the wheel wells, but I've been able to avoid it so far

I like my goldlines but i think the rear is a little lower on my xb? Not sure why. It just looks like it sometime.

I have RS*R springs and I like them a lot. The small rake they have and the drop is great. And......They might be for sale. PM me if interested.
