Stay on stock springs, and get GOOD struts and swaybars..like Koni
Yellows and ST or even better, Whiteline swaybars.

Stock springs are a higher rate than most any coilover setup, and the
height isnt that bad once you get CAPABLE struts on the car.

Trust me..it'll handlike like an M3..yes, on stock springs too.  And
ride like one too.
