Suspension for 1997 GXE

I am thuroughly dissatisfied with my car's stock suspension, so I'm planning on upgrading. I was thinking of going with an H&R sport springs and Bilstein sport struts setup. Any recomendations or suggestions? Also, who is a reliable retailer of these components? Thanks.

Bilstein doesn't make struts for our cars.

H&R's go well with Tokicos
For a firmer ride couple them with KYB AGX's

I'm looking for a setup that will provide better handeling performance, but still be comfortable for a daily driver. I'd like to have a noticeable improvement in handeling, but my budget is relatively limited. Any more suggestions?

Well, you could opt for Maxspeed springs... They're a bit firmer than SE suspension and will lower the car slightly, plus, they're relatively cheap. You might want to go AGX right away though, you'll regret not getting adjustables soon after... There are a ton of threads on this topic, so feel free to search/ask more questions...
