Default TANABE NF210 Lowering Springs, Shocks?

Apologies if this post is in the wrong place. I am looking to lower my 430 with springs and new shocks. I am not looking for a performance modification to stiffen the suspension or corner better. Comfort and look are the two things I am trying to accomplish.
Has anyone used the Tanabe NF210 lowering springs? If so how do they ride?

And what shocks would you recommend for the most comfort?

One more question, Can you recommend a one stop online shop to purchase both springs and shocks?

Thank you all very much for the info!!

I had these springs and KYB shocks on my old LS400. They were pretty good but not great. The car would bottom out with 4 people inside. Adjustable is so much better. Coilovers would be the best way for this price range and these are highly rated. Air bags are fantastic of course but very expensive. The units below are what I plan on buying when the time is right.

Those are Very cool. I found them a little cheaper. Are these the correct ones?

THat's complete different manufacture, and rating as well. MeisterR is much better for ride. At $1000, you can go either for MeisterR or BCracing coilovers.

I have Tein Sports on my Sc.....I think any lowering spring is going to make the ride a little rougher at times, because the car is lower & they have to keep the vehicle from bottoming out. I do like my ride better now, but know occasionally, I'll have to deal with the jolt of a big bump in the road. I have the KYB shocks on the front & Bilstein on the rear
