Whats up Dan, this is Dave. I had springs on my car and the ride was not bouncey, about an inch of drop all around. It did not like big bumps very much and you could hear the suspension more because of the camber plates. I still have them all together from when i switched to coilovers. There were still gaps between the wheels in the front, which is one of the reasons i went to coilovers. The spring rates of my coilovers are 8kg/mm and 6kg/mm. If you want, i could take you for a ride so you can see how it feels. It will not feel like the springs you want though. The main thing is, if you go to low with to high of a spring rate, your struts specs will not match the springs, giving you a harder ride. This will make your struts wear out faster, but they wouldn't make aftermarket springs if they weren't ment to be compatible with you car. Some sights you could check for springs and stuff are jscspeed.com, grupp-s.com, subydude.com, scoobytuner.com. you could probably find these all on google. Gimme a ring if you wanna chat.

Dave
