Default Debating on what springs....

Finally after 5 years on my 5zigen R-rated it's starting to give out. So I was in the market of choosing a springs that's comfortable on my 99 civic coupe. I was debating choosing between these ones.....

1. Tein S-tech,
2. Eibach,
3. Progress
4. or other....

Give me an opinion on which would be idea. I'm looking for something for street and track use(not drag). I already have Tokico Illumina's and Progress rear sway bar installed with few other supporting strut bars.

If you are talking about just springs, I have eibach sportlines and I love them. Normal driving they feel stock, they aren't bouncy or super stiff, but when I need to take a hard turn or two, they are stiff enough to get me through it.

Purely from what I've heard on here and locally, go with the Tein's

I have the Tein S-Tech's and I don't like them all that much, the spring rates aren't all that great for the size drop. I would go with the Eibach Sportline springs .

Does anyone have an opinion on the Progress springs? Because I've heard good and bad things about them.
