Springs and Struts

I want to keep the height of the car close to stock and the ride comfortable. The OEM springs are around $400 a set, but the struts are a bargain. For those of you who have changed the springs or struts, what would you recommend?

Hell go with the racing beat springs. it barelly lowered my car at all, but it raised my spring rate some much better feel. was only like $125 for the set.
still a very comfortable ride.

Tokico Shocks, Eiback springs. your stock springs will have sagged so much by this time "lowering" springs won't really lower it too much, if at all.
