Default Ur opinion on Suspension Combo!!!

I'm getting suspension for my hatch and was thinking about getting beilstein strut with h&r springs, wat do you guys thing, heard it's a really smooth ride, feels just like stock unless you run over a pot hole. Give me your opinions and wat other suspensing combo do you guys prefer.

money not a factor but i'm not looking for any high tech suspension and I don't like coilovers, i just need something i can use for everyday driving, something dat would give me a better handling and nice clean look.

i love my progress springs. great drop and performance. the rear springs don't drop quite the same as the fronts, but that allows you to load up the trunk w/o slamming the rear end. my kyb agx are also pretty nice. no complaints, and the 4 adjustments are all pretty noticable.

This is my setup and why I chose this.

I wanted to get a suspension that would daily drivable and still performance wise and a few people recommended the TEIN S-TECH with KYB AGX Adjustable Shocks.

Everyone has their own opinion but I thought i'd just give you my so called "advice/opinion"

Thanks again.

I have heard nothing but great things about both Bilstein's products and H&R's springs. I spent some time in a bilsten + h&r E30 325i on some pretty shitty roads (Taiwan), and it was hard to find any fault with that setup. Granted, the E30 is a beautiful chassis already, and I'm accustomed to stiff rides, but I was very happy with the way the car rode and handled.
