Which are better, in your opinions. Maxspeeds and B&Gs paired with either Gr2s or Agxs

Define "better". Stiffer? Softer? Better handling? better ride? Lower? Higher so it doesn't hit the bumpstops?

Yea i was looking at that link, if i got the maxspeeds and then got the rsb and fstb, would that make its handling equivalent to the B&Gs. I dont see too many ppl riding on B&Gs.. Also, i'll probably hit up the agxs since a group deal of 330 is lingering.

I don't think B&Gs are very good handlers, that's quite a soft spring too from what I hear, they just dorp more. Now Eibach or Sprint, that's something to live up to. RSBs and FSTBs do help a lot, I'd recommend both.

i wouldn't want eibach's or sprints because i dont want strictly stiffness. I want like the best of both.. maybe not possible. but i'll see.

Any aftermarket spring handles better than stock. So anyway you go, things will be improved. How much improved is a different story.

B+G's are NOT soft dude. Theyre one of the thickest and most solidly built springs. You will definetely notice a big difference if you pair them up with AGXs, compared to the stock SE ride. The drop is also lower than H&R and Eibach, but not as low as Sprint so you retain some suspension travel and don't scrape as much. Handling will be much improved also.. any spring that drops your center of gravity will result in better cornering.
