Since this is going to be my daily driver I don't think I will be going with Coil overs. What springs do you guys recommend for our Verts? How well do the Tein S tech's work? they are priced pretty good. I would not mind making the car handle a little better but I don't want to kill the ride either. So what are you guys using and how much did it drop and how does it handle?

I'd say these are about the same and good for mild drop and good handling.

You would just want to pair with a decent shock. KYB AGX if you want adjustable or Tokico Blue for cheaper non-adj.

This man speaks the truth. I have RSR springs on AGX shocks/struts. At the softest setting they're still stiffer than stock, so you'll have to get used to that a bit. They are a lot more tame than cheap coils though.
