I just ordered bilstein shocks and struts, and I will be getting springs soon. I want to be able to take advantage of the shocks, but don't want a harsh ride. Which H&R spring should I go with?

I have the H&R race springs with Bilsteins. Not harsh in my opinion.

*EDIT* Note that I have 245/45/16 Kumho 712's. And yes, you can feel everything in the road, but it's not harsh. Just a lot of feedback, that's what they are supposed to do. With a really low profile tire I could see them being a bit too firm though. Up to you.

I Got Race Springs With The Bilstein And You Feel Everything In The Road But It Holds The Road Like A Mother. Also Depends On Tires, I When I Got Really Firm Side Walls It Got Way Harder Of A A Ride, I Dont Know How Much Diffrance There Is Between Race And The Others But I Love Em.

Why don't you call H&R and ask them, they should know about their springs more than us...

I have the Sport springs, and they work wonderfully for me.

I'm another with the Sport Springs. I'm running 245x40x17 which make for a stiff ride because of the lower profile tires, but not a harsh ride.
