Default Springs Suggestions Anyone?

My ride feels like a horse and buggy. Can anyone recomend some good affordable springs?

Depends what you want to do with the car. Are you wanting to set it up for a little drag racing or just want to drop it a little and be good on the street? For street, most here will probably recommend either H&R SuperSports or Eibach Pro-Kit/Sportlines. From the brief description of your car's ride quality that you gave, I'm guessing new shocks and struts should be done as well.

I'm running H&R super sport springs and love the setup. Swapped the stock shocks/struts and went with Tokico blues. Handling and looks was greatly increased.

I am very partial to Bilstein. I would change the shocks and struts first. That should give you at least a better ride.

I bought frpp c springs for my GT and H&Rs for the cobra. H&Rs give you a bigger drop, but the frpp are such a good deal.
