suspension/struts/swaybar recomendations

what would u people sugest in the front and back too use as struts? swaybars? im pretty much decided on tein HE coilovers heard there worth the money (though ill have too save some for awhile) planing on doing the five lug swap and the mustang wheels cause there inexpensive wheigh a little over 16 lbs a piece 17in by 7.5in and luck pretty dang good when the mustang insignia is removed from them and replaced with a blank cover. im also looking at some roll bars. the car is going too be striped soon and i want too take care of handling first then power then some apearence stuff. it will be a daily driver but i love ruff rides and being able too feel the road. ill probaly jus swap in better pads and do steel break lines since im swapping in the five lugs but yea i want ur sugestions (if something is significantly better in design and quality i am willing too pay for it though wit my cash/income itll take awhile (too get too the pt where my car is finished willprobaly be ehh 4-5 maybe more years i hope not but probaly) )

it all depends on how much money you feel like spending in a bit i'm gonna be putting suspension techniques f/r sway bar and energy suspension bushing kit on. also with kyb agx shocks and coilovers we'll see how that goes. see it it stiffens it up at all

instead of saving up for a set of 1600 set of TEIN HE.....why not just get KYB or other simpler suspension....think of it this way....u'll need to save up twice as long to get the "ideal" setup.....but for half the time u can get a setup better than the ones u have now and drive around with something else better than stock...but its really up to you

my dad put the kyb agx's on his miata and with the 8 way adjustable setting it can stiffen it up quite a bit just my 2 cents though
