Anybody out there know any of the following spring rates:

Stock 1995 Celica GT springs
Tein S-tech lowering springs
Eibach Pro-kit springs
Eibach Sportline springs

I'm trying to decide what to get for my Celica. I am going to get a set of KYB GR2's for it, and plan to lower it with new springs. I've heard that the Tein's look nice, but are only slightly stiffer than stock, meaning bouncier ride and bump stop thumping, but are the Eibach Sportline's any better? They both drop about the same.

Thanks.

Back from the dead... What is your opinion on comfortable daily driven spring rates? Im looking into ksport coilovers that have 7/392 front and 5/280 rear, seems way stiffer than my tein springs, but the question is: since i have kyb that are not a good match for tein springs, will i feel more comfortable as far as driving over railroad tracks etc. with these coilovers at those spring rates with softest dampening setting? how will comfort of that compare to kybs+teins springs ? Thanks!
