Coilovers or Springs

[clean2g]

If you want just springs get the Eibach pro kit I believe its called. If you want coilovers, most people have gone with the ground controls including me, but after some of the issues I've been facing with them, I wish I had saved up a little more and got some "true" coilovers, i.e. Tein. My ground controls have warped somehow and one has even cracked, this is on the cylinder part with the teeth for the adjusting ring, the springs are fine though. What year is your dsm? and is it awd? I have the KYB AGX's and they seem a bit harsh even on the lowest stiffness. I hear the Tokico Illuminas are pretty nice. I think it all comes down to personal preference and budget. But if you're going to use your car all year round, I'd get some sort of coilovers for sure to raise the car during winter.

I personally dont have coilovers, but from the research I've done, make sure you match the spring rates of the springs on the coilover to the valving on the shock. And as for Eibach springs they only really raise the spring rates on the front and the rear is about the same as stock, but they sit lower. I have Tokico Illum. and they are decent but I wish I would have gone with either Koni Yellows and a Ground Control setup for a true coilover setup. But, if you are checking things out it sounds like Koni is what alot of people what want their car to handle go with.
