Hey can anyone help me. I'm looking to upgrage my stock suspension and I'm at a bit of a crossroads.

I'm not looking for high performance or it to be dropped really low I'm looking more for a comfortable ride and good handling. The roads are quite bumpy over here and its getting very frustrating. I was thinking of going for new shocks and springs as I here coilovers are a bit harsh.

I was looking at kyb gr2's and tein s-tech springs.

What do you think????

Eibach Sportlines are the smoothest lowering springs I've ever felt - very much like stock comfort. Teins are harsh but worth it IMO [most days anyway].

Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.
