Remember that if you lower your car on stock struts, you MUST raise the wpring rates proportionally. If you want to do it the proper way, get custom inserts and GC sleeves done at a soft rate, like 180-200 pounds front, 150-170 rear.

On my car, Eibach pro-kit springs give a near stock ride.
The following chart gives spring rates for popular choices.

Here's my setup:
'04 WRX
Espelir ASD Springs
35mm(1.38") Front - 20mm(0.8") Rear
252lbs/in Front - 196lbs/in Rear
KYB AGX
--------
I think it's a pretty nice ride. Near stock ride with less body roll. I guess they're comparable to the Pro Kits as far as ride quality, but they drop just a tad lower.

The Setup
Stock View
Dropped View (after about a week)

Enjoy! Hope this helps!
