Default quick question for all

So I need a new suspension setup. My current shocks are blown and the spings are cracked(they came with the car). I was perusing the boards and now I have narrowed my choices down to three set-ups. 1) Ground Control+Konis, Left over money to be spent on some wheels & tires. 2) H&R coilover set 1.5"-2.0" drop. 3) H&R ultra low coilover set 2"-3" drop. I like these since they are all adjustable,but where I am stuck is which would work for me. In the future I plan on autox, but as of yet it is still a point A to point B car with the occasional twisty road trip. In your opinion does being able to choose the spring rate make it(ground control) a better buy? The whole buying wheels thing is not really that important as of yet, but it still would be nice. I guess if you were in my position what would you do. I want to get the most out of my cash( highest quality). Thank you all.

Since you said keyword - autox

Id definitely go with the koni/GC combo. Call up GC, tell them your plans and they will recommend the proper spring rate/length according to your needs and based on the shock you are going to go with. They also make a perch specifically made for the koni shocks, so that your spring/shock combo is very close to a true coilover assembly.
