Jake- suspension upgrading is highly subjective, as u probably know. that said, I have Konis on the front(set to soft from the store) and Bils-HD in the rear. coming from stock(and i believe it was the sport set-up since I have a T5 with most options), it was an improvement. much less squat and dive; bettering response and steering input. But the ride is still stiff and I didn't change spring cause they are stiffer than regular 850s. But I have 17s on 45series and strut brace too. Can u imagine if I did springs and sway bars?; my filings would come out!!!! My point is: for most of us, shocks alone should be enough to improve our handling; how often are you taking 75mph sweeping turns or changing lanes like they do at the track with cones ??? So, if you want comfort stay with your stock springs and some 60 or 65 series tires. good luck,D
