Default Help: Which Non-C/O Suspension Kit?

I've been researching across the board but can't seem to find a good evaluation of which kit is "the best". Looking for increased handling, but still comfortable as daily driver and lowered more than stock sport suspension w/o rubbing/adverse travel. Koni Sport Shock + H&R Sport Springs
[blockquote] Koni Sport Shock + H&R Super Sport Springs
Koni Sport Shock + Neuspeed Sport Springs
Koni Sport Shock + Eibach Pro-Cup Springs
Koni FSD + Neuspeed Sport Springs
[/blockquote]Any details on the differences between the setups would be greatly appreciated.

FSD + Neuspeed springs + Neuspeed rear sway bar, cut the bumpstops 1/2" -1". Comfortable, excellent handling daily driver setup. If you're gonna track, I'd go w/ coilovers, or something other than FSD - they've got a lot of initial give, but firm up rapidly under cornering or braking forces. Great for street use.

What type of wheels do you have on the car? 17-18-19's ?
I just got the h&r cup kit and i love it. (comfortable for daily ride, stiffer then stock)
I'm sure all are pretty close to performance you'll just have to decide on how much you want to pay?

Another vote for the FSD... Just need approval to get mine... []

I should be going with HnR instead of NS however.

Approval???

Remember, it is almost always easier to get forgiveness than permission!

{scenerio}
Wife: Wow, the car seems to be lower than it used to be?
Chef: Really?
Wife: Yeah, what did you do?
Chef: Oh, a friend helped me adjust the springs some. I'm just wondering if I like the adjustment or not?
Wife: How much did you spend?
Chef: Oh, with these "Sport" springs, you can adjust the ride height, and compression is you want.
Wife: Oh.
Chef: WHEW!!!

Cheers!

I have 18"s, running 225/40. Stryker, are you running H&R Sport Springs or the ones that lower 1.9" in the front? I decided to go with the H&R Sport Springs (1.3" drop all around) with Koni Sport Shocks. Chef, you need to post some pics of the new Koni C/Os.
