Springs performance question

[mr_desmo]

So this thread is for the suspension performance specialists:
-hoes drop springs improve the cars handling?
-why is that that drop springs are physically as high as the stock springs, manage to drop the car, have higher linear spring rate at the same time?

Just trying to clear some confusion as some say the feel like they do perform better but in the real measurable (skidpad etc) do they better the package?

Thanks!

Great coils are complicated in design and a lot goes into them. qualty of the metal, the bending/heating processes, peening, thickness, gaps of the coils, etc. Our coils when removed are not the same heights as OE

Handling is improved by lowering the center of gravity, and increasing coil rates to reduce the the body role.
