BMR springs SP763 or SP080

What’s the difference between the 2 and which is better for a daily driver?

Both are great options for a DD. The SP080 will have a slightly lower front stance/rake to it. Someone will correct me but the SP080 has a 1/2” drop rear and just about 1.2” drop front. The other has the same rear but roughly a quarter inch less drop in front.

Visually one will look even stance while the other a slight rake.

Both of these have the same spring rates at 170 and 740 lb/in front and rear. The SP080 has a 1.2" front drop and the SP763 has a 0.88" front drop (on the GT). Both have the same rear springs and a drop of 0.5". Given that you have the V6, I would go with the SP080, as it will look very balanced with about a 1" front drop, because of the reduced weight on the front.

The V6 with the SP080 will look like this (EB and V6 have almost identical front axle weight):

Gotcha.. thanks! Would these work well with my stock shocks and struts or would upgrading to some PP ones be better?

They'll work alright. You'll enjoy it more with PP shocks and struts.

I went with the SP763 for a less raked stance, but I'm sure either option you will not regret. Just waiting on some strut bolts to come in and I'll be able to see how mine looks soon. I've also got an annoying bump in my driveway to clear so I wanted the minimal drop in the front.

I am a fan of the minimal drop. It messes less with the geometry although apparently the front end is less sensitive to geometry change from lowering.

On the GT I agree. For the V6/EB the reduction in weigh off the front is enough to go for the SP080, IMO.

Listen to BmacIL :-)

I prefer a little bit of a rake look on these cars. With the long hood/fender lines it just looks better with some rake, IMO. Obviously looks are subjective, and you can't go wrong with BMR springs!
