Tough Suspension choice!

Well, I am buying some KYB agx, (used slightly) and i am getting a package deal with some sprint springs.
Thing is, I have a friend who is willing to trade my sprints for his maxspeeds.
I have ridden in meccanobles car who has agx/sprint, and the ride is not to harsh for me. but im worried about the suspension travel issue sprints are supposed to have. I also have an obx exhaust which, by nature of obx exhausts, hangs LOW, so i will probably have to get it bent up with sprints.
With maxspeeds i probably wouldnt.
Thing is I really like the look of sprints, and mecca hasnt a problem...
So im not sure what to do!!! I love the look and handling of sprint (i have driven meccas car) but im worried about the lack of suspension travel causing problems (some roads here in CT are rough!) But i still want the handling, and i want to LOOK dropped!
What do you guys think!?

Well i have maxspeeds and gr-2s and the ride is pritty harsh but i like it. I realy have nothing to compare to so i cant tell you how harsh they are compared to sprints. The only thing i can say is i choose maxspeeds because of the drop small drop, i drive my car in the winter and with crappy tires so i didnt want to drop it to much with sprints and end up stuck alot. But i do like the look of sprints much better. O and the handeling with my maxspeeds is

The S-techs are awesome...but if you want a spring that performs with something as "harsh" as the AGXes (i don't see what the big deal is, i guess there are some max owners out there who have bone rattling problems prior to their deaths...) then get Eibachs.
