buy ground control coilovers.
500 lb front and 150 or 175 rear.
Strano springs use 500f/150r and most everyone is satisfied.
I'm going w/ ground control 500/175r more for handing and auto-x than softer for drag. But you should be OK w/ either, and 150 would be better for street.

Oh you meant coilover springs? Not coilover sleeves?
Whatever, either one is a great choice. Strano or Ground Controls. Pair them up w/ a good shock, Koni Yellow is the best affordable shock. About 800 for all four.
Or alternative is KYB AGX. (compared to Koni, it's just an average shock).

You guys use a special wrench for your front coilovers to turn them? Just installed some strange Coil overs on the front and I think a special too is needed? Where did you get it?
