OEM ITR springs and Koni Sport (yellow) shocks. I ran these on my car with great results. Rode great, handled great, and was low enough to look lowered but wasn't dumped in the weeds.

I ran KYB AGX's with H&R Sport springs. It was great for daily driving.
I upgraded to Omnipower Coil-overs. The ride height was adjustable, though the ride was much stiffer than the previous set up.

I suggest you think about what you plan on doing with the car and go from there.

Why not just get some coilovers? Currently I'm running Tokico blues with ground control coilovers and its a great setup. Not too stiff but still stiff enough. Good for daily driving too. I've had coilovers on my last 2 cars, and I wouldn't go back to springs, just because with coilovers just have more options. You can lower and higher the car ANYTIME you want
