Default ek coupe kyb agx: s tech or h&r springs?

im going to be putting kyb agx's on my 99 coupe. it is my daily driver and it is really bumpy right now (tockico blues with cheapy coilovers, bought car with set up). anyways, im debating on tein s tech lowering springs or h&r's. i do want performance but not a bumby ride. also looking for a pretty good drop but nothing insane. i plan on putting 16's with some tires to close up the wheel well gap.

also are the springs going to sag over time to give me more of a drop?

Settle not sag.

You might rub with the H&R springs unless it's the H&R OE Sport, but that lowers less than 1"

The S-Techs seem to fit you right, they have a good drop and are comfortable.

The H&R Sports are bumpy and not too comfty.

It all depends do you want comfort then you should get the Tein's. I would still reccomend and anyobdy that has them H&Rs all the way man. From all the threads and even me owning them nobody denies the H&Rs.

ive been riding on the agx and h&r race for a long time. the struts finally gave out, but the ride wasnt bad and it used to handle pretty good. it also kept the front end down pretty good when i would launch at the track, between 300 and 350whp

i'd say h&r race springs...the h&r sports doesn't drop the car low enough IMO.
