best springs for DD with kyb agx

I am looking for a decent spring that will give me no more then a 1.2 inch drop all the way around that are a good match up with the kyb agx struts. I don't want coilovers, just because they are too much for what I need, I just want improved handling with good daily drivability with out being to stiff or uncomfortable of a ride see as I commute 80 miles a day to and from work. I was thinking teins but they do a 1.5 drop and was wondering if there was a good spring with less of a drop that would work well with these struts.

thanks
timmay

Swift springs are top rated. My friend had them in his '03 350z with stock '04 shocks and it was smoother than the stock springs and shocks. I have on my coilovers.
Pm me if you want the hookup.

/\ my car used to look like yours even when I just put in my coilovers. LOL Now I'm 5lug and still it's about the height for flushness on the wheels. Remove the black strip on the rear bumper. Too bad my fenders and dings and dents...oh well..hehe

if you commute that far of distance, i'd just get softest springs, and softest settings on the agx, i'd hate to drive long distance in my car... rattle rattle rattle...

My Tein lowering spring FTMFW. MINIMAL DROP and great quality. If you want them throw me a REASONABLE offer and they are yours... New condition.

If you don't like them, resell them for the same or more easily.
