Best lowering springs?

I currently have the dinan adjustable springs, i need to get a new set because my springs are rusting and making a bad noise, my mechanic recommended kw has but i also seen carbahn has a set also, was seeing if anyone had any feedback on the carbahn adjustable springs? I got my dinan springs 3 yrs, and my reasoning was that the dinan one lowered more than the kw, and stance was important to me

North shore boston area, but the big spring looks like its rubbin on the lower spring, if u see the lowering spring there is the main big one and alittle one towards the bottom, but i have also read that dinan springs are prone to rust for some reason…

I also have Dinan Has and are happy with it the only downside is that they rust fast as you say.
Mine did come with a plastic shim between the main and helper springs.
The paint on my springs started to chip off pretty fast and started to rust so i sprayed some oil on them and now over 2 years they still look good so that slowed the rust down.
