It depends on what you are trying to do, If you just want it lower but a totally stock ride, the Tein S techs are good, if you want any performance they are absolute ass....

the Teins are bouncy and to soft for the track...Mostly I hated the bounciness when I was on the highway. I loved my H&R springs, but kg/mm are supposed to be awesome and the RS*R aren't bad either.

just buy coilovers man.
kg/mm are the best you can get, and not made anymore. and are around 350$ if you can find them.

i have megan springs and they are nice and stiff and not bouncy, the ksports i dont recommend because they are a progressive spring, it depends on what your going to do, but i recommend a linear spring

for daily driven, a progressive spring isn't bad. It lets you have a nice smoother ride, but still able to handle corners without looking like a jackass...
