Best bang for the buck suspension upgrade?

Ok i know the rs get crappier suspension parts so i was wondering, seeing as my car is an everyday driver and i have things like speedbumps to deal with i don't want the car to drop lower so aftermarket springs are out of the qustion, so i was was thinking that maybe some used z28 or late iroc springs would be a good idea. So am i right or are there alternatives? I know sfc's are a good idea but thats a long way off and the body roll bothers me more than the flex. so z28 springs or should i look for aftermarkets that don't drop it any?

Max performance tires (ref: tirerack), stiffer anti-roll/sway bars

Best bang for the buck, in my opinion, is a set of polyurethane end-links. Buy one set for each sway bar. Improve further by buying the mounting bushings in polyurethane, but this is a good start.

They're $13.99/set at http://www.summitracing.com !

In red, ENS-9-8117R.
In black, ENS-9-8117G.

As a bonus, if you ever rebuild the suspension with all poly bushings, you don't have to buy these again.
