Default Spring reccomendation

I was looking at various springs for my 98 Type R.
A few names came up in previous threads, like H and R's. I was looking into the Tein S-Tech, Spoon, and H and R. This is just temporary to give the car a lower stance since Im going to be putting it back to stock before I go to college in about six months. Anyone have any experience with any of these or some any others that I did not mention. Any input and help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Adam

If it's temporary then go with the Tein s-tech. Very cheap at $130-140 shipped.

They lower the car with a good stance and are soft enough for daily driving.

one of my boys has H&R in his 01 ITR with OEM Struts and car handles great and gives a nice low look.

Eibach is the the center of the springs-universe... Most famous companies learned there stuff there ( just like H&R (Ex-Eibach students)) Can`t go better.

Spoon progressive springs.
Had them in an ITR I bought and sold and must check if they are street legal here... They are identical to H&R springs (which are at least made by Eibach-knowlesge)

Then it's not worth it - don't bother.

I agree. Why even bother for 6 months?
