Post your suspension specs and your reviews on them.

Tanabe DF210 springs:

front drop: 1.9"
rear drop: 2.2"

I've had them on since the first day I bought the xD, was my first mod.
Absolutely LOVE them!
I highly recommend the df210's for anyone that wants an aggressive drop without losing ride quality. Been running them for almost a year now and the ride is still great.

First impressions are it's reeeaaallly low compared to stock height. You'll notice significantly less body roll and the car just feels more planted to the ground.
I have the 5Axis lip kit on mine and haven't had any issues with ground clearance, as long as you are familiar with driving a lowered vehicle.
I also have 18x8" wheels with +45 offset and 225/40/18 tires with no rubbing issues, so you are safe with that setup.

Pros:
aggressive drop
excellent ride quality

Cons:
could limit wheel size/offset because it's such an aggressive drop
could have rubbing issues if installing a really large speaker setup in the back
