There has been a few posts like this in the past think the Ahmed springs gave a good ride quality and height, give Mike at R&B a shout and he will sort you out. If you go for GAZ coilovers get them from Chris ( cossymad ) on here he specs them with a different spring rate that give a better ride.

its not so much the '-20mm' drop or whatever the ahmed springs claim to be, dont be fooled into thinking you need a specific drop.
the escos needs to be at a certain height front and rear to enable them to still squat to a slight level, to have the correct roll points to handle correctly, and the ahmed springs achieve this perfectly, matched with a set of Koni's and you will find they will give a much better road feel, overal drive and handling ability than the entry budget level of Gaz coilovers at £500.
but as said, if you do go for Gaz coilovers, order them thru Chris oe Mike as they spec the springs slightly different, Gaz spec them ridiculously hard.

I bought them well over a yr ago now, its was under £500 all in from memory but that was a while ago. Well worth doing if your on standard stuff, that and Poly bush the front end.

I only think that rear springs are a little bit too hard , but I prefer to have it a little bit hard at the beginning that have eibach -25 wich become -40 for years
