Default 3 Choices...HELP!!!

I have a '96 civic hatch and want to get coilovers. I am not interested in auto-x or drag racing really. I might drag in the future, but not very often. I would just like a fun, spirited, adjustable suspension that can handle like a fother mucker when i feel like it. Which of the following would you suggest i get?

1. Progress Competition -- $700 shipped
2. H&R Coilovers(used 1 year) -- $600 shipped
3. Tein Type Basics -- $652 shipped

Or would you suggest something different for around the same price...reason for price is because i know i will eventually have to buy a camber kit and don't want to get pushed over the $1000 mark for my suspension. Call me cheap, but i just can't justify spending anymore on the suspension...well at least yet. Haha!

Thanks for any help!

Dan

If the tein and progress are new i would buy the progress, tein is always a favorite though. The H&R must be good if the are used and still worth that much in comparison to the others.
