Springs?

Hey guy's... ok so basically, I did hours upon hours of research on here.. and everyone was praising the Eibach Pro kit springs, so I went out to order some..and I come home.. and now everyone seems to be trash talking them.. so I phoned and cancelled my order.. Any other recommendations of other springs? I dont really care about lowering the car that much [maybe 1 inch?] I just want to improve handling.. and my springs are worn out.
Thanks!

Well........gotta say I am a fan of the Eibach sportlines. Oh well, to each his own.

You could try the hotchkis springs. They will lower the car about an inch.

Car Craft did a build up a few years back using all Hotchkis (springs, sfc, lca and stb). WIth 17x9 and 275's all around the car went toe to toe on the skidpad and swalom with the viper and corvette and blew away the NSX (Znardi edition).

I have hotchkiss - they are good, drop is nice, but the spring rate is not much off from what the ws6 springs are... i was hoping they would be a bit stiffer...
