Default Lowering Springs Question?????

Hey im lookin for some springs that are more aggressive than my current setup. Is there any other manufacturer that makes a spring lower than Tein's S Tech ( 1.5F/ 2R ) ? Trying to go about half an inch to an inch lower without using coilovers or cutting my existing springs.

Skunk 2 lowering springs give you a pretty nice drop without coil overs.

thanx j4k3, i thought i kinda made it clear wut i didnt want to do but...umm yea, so skunk 2 goes lower huh? Do you know how much lower by chance? Im only going a half inch lower, i dont think thats really going to destroy the comfort level that i currently have on this setup and it damn sure cant be as harsh as coilovers.
