I don't know about daily driving but if you are looking for better handling get the Bilsteins. Better yet, try to find some SLP Bilsteins or maybe a set of Strano Bilsteins. I had a set of LT1 Pro Kit {a bit more spring rate than the LS1 Eibachs} springs on my car along with SLP Bilsteins and it was pretty good but I could have used a bit more rebound damping I think.
Anyway, once again my pick is for the Bilsteins in one way or another.

When I bought my car it had the SLP revalves. (SLP only valves the fronts, and the rears are regular HD's)
If I could do it over again I would either get sam strano to revalve the fronts, or get a set of koni SA's for the front. For the back I would go with a 3rd gen HD.
