Default Which Springs?

I'm thinking about lowering my IS a little bit and am wondering what springs I should get to keep the ride quality as close to stock as possible.

TIA

I would recommend Eibach..
I am lowered with it and I must say that the ride quality is similar if not better than stock setup.

I lowered my car, after months of debate, using Eibach as well. What LexIS250SS said; ride quality imo is better than stock.

I got used springs for cheap, so I couldn't tell you. Brand new, they run about 220$. I got it installed for about 130$.

233 for the springs (with shipping and tax included)
140 for installation
70 for 4-wheel alignment (recommended after you lowered your car)
443 total

Lowered look = priceless
