Default suspension. skunk2 or neuspeed race

What set of springs would be better with 5 way tokico adjustable shocks on a 4th gen prelude? I have heard skunk 2 coilovers have a harsh ride. And Neuspee srpings kind of suck. What are your opinions? I am only askin about skunk2 or nuespeed race springs because I can get a used set for dirt cheap. I want something with a pretty nice low agressive drop.

So please dont tell me to scrap this set up and get some TEIN ss. "I KNOW but no moola at the moment saving up"

I had neuspeed race springs on stock struts before I switched to Tein HA. I noticed that after a while it sagged and the dead coils were very noisy. That was my experience with the neuspeed. I have heard good things about eibach.

I know that eibachs and H&r are pretty good springs. But i havent come across any used ones that are cheap. This is temporary before i get some teins. SO its basically between skunk 2 and neuspeed race springs for now. I mean are they just so bad that i shouldnt even waste my time? Or should i save some real cash and cut my stock springs and ride on them for awhile. haha.

Im just lookin for soemthing that will ride somewhat smooth and not too harsh.

I have the Skunk2 Coilover setup with KYB AGX's and I really like the setup. Yes its not as smooth as maybe Tein SS but it cost a hell of alot less! hehe. The drop was great and they handle like a dream, both in Autocross and on the street. I don't think the ride is all that harsh, but then again I'm comparing it to a race car, not a catty.
