Default Which Springs is the best for daily driving?

Hey guys i knwo this is a really dumb questions and all but i dont have the money to get a full coilover set yet and iw ant my car lowered. So i was wondering which spring would be a good drop with stock ap1 rims. I do a lot of driving and im thinking the springs will make the car bouncier then it already is.. Will it? Well what kind of spring would you guys recommend and what should i expect from it beside closing the wheel gap?

i personally went with eibach pro kits. very satisfied. actually feels softer than stock on normal roads because of its progressive characteristics.

in order to go lower... you have to go stiffer.. not to ruin shocks.

ergo.. all lowering springs are stiffer than oem

springs are rated in kg/mm (kilograms of weight to compress it each milimeter)

softer the rate (lower #) the more comfy the ride

check spring rates on every brand and choose the lowest #
