NB SE Eibach springs (Mazdaspeed?)

Does anyone know if the Eibach springs fitted as standard to the 2004/2005 SE will lower a standard NB8A, and if so by how much? My car has Koni Yellows which may or may not make any difference.
Cheers

This old thread seems to suggest they don't make that much difference.

Thanks Guys,
Just managed to drag up an old road test, it says the springs are 7mm lower than stockies. Not really worth the spend to take it all apart. Looking for about 20mm drop.

I think King Springs are about 30mm drop, and many people find them a good match for the Koni yellows (I presume the adjustables? the adjustables are painted yellow)

King springs work well they make the car ride better also as well as lowering it . They are a great improvement,all Standard se bilsteins are non adjustable.
