Find out what your stock spring rates are, find out how much you want to drop, then crank the spring rates up until it takes the same amount of force to bottom out your car as with the taller softer stock setup. You could just go ultra stiff, like 500-600 pounds/inch up front, and then you wouldn't have to worry about bottoming out, even with a 2 inch drop.

Your roads must be nice and smooth, I am not sure what the rates on the H&R springs that I am running are but I am sure they aren't that high and they are almost too much on the beat up roads here.

Nah, I'm running just a tad over 500 lb/in up front, and it feels damn good.
