I agree on the Bilsteins... I installed mine over 2 years ago with Hotchkis springs, I wasn't looking for anything too radical just a some drop with better performance than stock. At the time my car had 35K mi on it. Today I'm at 47K mi and my car still rides and handles very nicely, I couldn't be happier.

Front: 223-448
Rear: 97-136
They are never 223 or 97, they are closer to 400 and up front, 110 and up rear. Notice even the max rates are softer than what most aftermarket lowering springs are. Partially because they are taller, and because they are more "ride" springs than handling springs. But the funny part is, they don't always ride better. A customer of mine in Canada just put my springs on in place of his SLP's and found the car rides better in his estimation. Now he has Koni's on the car and that does have an effect when the higher spring rate is used.
