Default help me choose springs/shocks

which would you prefer + any bad points about these wanted (for ek hatch)

shocks - koni yellow
or tokico illumina


springs - tein s tech
neuspeed sport
h&r sport


my requirements -- maintain as much comfort as possible, improved handling etc (very important). im not really bothered about drop. all these offer good enough drop for me.

Shocks = Koni

Spring = H&R of Teins

Don't get the tockio's. They suck and this is coming from someone who use to love them.

tein ss was 1st choice after spending months telling myself i wouldnt go for coilovers. i can get good deal on em imported to u.k from u.s $1000 shipped.

but they are gonna be too rough for me and our roads so wanna look at spring/shock combo options again. tein have spring/shock combo available from japan which are 16 way adjustable but they are more expensive than the tein ss.

blaa if you don't want coil overs get koni yellow or KYB AGX with some Eibach springs ERS. but as i always suggest go with koni yellow's and GC coil over. both great products but this way you get to set the height of your car right were you want it.
