Default NEED HELP: Have Tokico HPs/Blues...what springs should i get?

I currently have Tokico blues with a cheap coilover kit. Its pretty bouncy and I am looking for something with a ride a little stiffer and lower than stock, but not bouncy or too stiff. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot.

KYB AGX's or Koni's are great shocks for the money. Ground Controls are good coilovers.

Im only really asking about springs. I have tokicos, so Im not going to go out and buy new shocks at all. And my experience with ground control was not a good one...a friend had them on a 97 eclipse, they were really bouncy on there. Thanks for the suggestion though.

I have Koni yellows and originally had Eibach Sportlines. Yea, it was low, but too bouncy. Then tried Eibach Pro-kit springs and mucho better. Still just as low, but a more progressive spring than a lowering spring.

I have the blues with prokits. I think this is a good economy setup. Stiffer than stock, handles good, not much drop though. If I were doing this over, would get the same springs and spend more on shocks.

i had eibach prokits on tokicos and it rode like stock. way too soft if you ask me. didn't handle any better than stock. i wouldn't suggest prokits if you want a firm ride.
