In my experience I had to consider ground clearance, tire clearance, ride quality/comfort, and handling/body roll.

For me a modest drop was a good idea considering the tegs are already pretty low stock as well as having small wheel well clearance. I didn't want to bottom out at every bump or rub my tires. Then there is ride quality and handling performance. These go pretty much hand in hand. If you want both, a combination of higher spring rates for front and lower for the rear is good since ride quality is affected more by the rear springs. You can also change ride quality and handling with adjustable shocks but they can only perform as well as the springs they are paired with. That being said, I went with the pro-kits because they are a modest drop, and probably one of the best compromises for ride comfort and handling.
