I don't know about just springs, but the lowest suspension systems are either TcKline coilovers with the "special" Z3/Ti small vogtland VVS springs in the rear, or KW variant 3's. But my take is that either one of those systems at full drop will move the roll center of the car up to high and actually hurt performance.

The shortest off-the-shelf springs are probably the H&R Race springs. The Eibach Sport Line is nearly as short, but you may not be able to find any of those. The US Eibach site no longer lists any parts for the ti.

H&R Race is very low but you could probably do more with full coilovers.

H&R race will be the lowest.

if you dont track your car or know what you are doing with coilovers, then dont get them. 9 out of 10 people dont know what they are doing and end up having a worse suspension setup than stock.
