I agree, that the Tein Flex's are probably exactly what you want.

One thing, though, is that the Tein Flex, even on full height they won't be quite as high as the stock suspension. This probably won't cause an issue unless you start off-roading in snow, but I thought I'd bring it up.

With the Ohlins, you'll be stuck at that ride height (don't know what it is) and it may not give you enough clearance for snowy roads. That's something you'll want to double check.
