What I'm not too sure about is the pro's and con's of doing just springs versus a coil-over setup.

Thanks all for the info!
Agreed, as long as the new spring rates don't differ from stock by too much (say less than 10 - 15% increase) you'll be fine w/ springs alone. You might be slightly under damped, but who cares, it's not like you're planning to win Le Mans next year.

We`ve found that TI is tough material to work with, as it never seems to be consistent. I`d like to get a set of their springs to rate if they are truly TI.

how are the espiler springs or the kg/mm race springs for lowering, on stock shocks but then eventually upgrading to koni's. A better daily driver that has a flatter turn with occasional autox?
