I'm looking for a set of springs for my P5. I don't want too much of a drop because of the roads here. I measured the gap between my car and driveway, and it seems that i only have about an inch of clearance. So the RB springs seem just right.

I've read from a thread that they're not progressive, but on another thread someone stated that they were. Which is it?>
 
I don't think the RB's are progressive either. The OEM P5 rear springs do look like they are; compared to the ES rear spring they have less total wraps, and the wraps are at a much steeper angle at the bottom, then they tighten up near the top. The wire diameter is actually thinner on the P5 springs too, although it is a stiffer spring. I'd get the RB's, about 3/4-7/8" drop. Subtle!
