Progress or H-Techs (experienced advice only please)

I havent seen enough comparison in past threads between these 2 springs so I decided to beat one of the deadest horses on the org (sorry guys). Anyway lemme just say comfort is most important to me - I know I know all you H&R junkies are gonna jump on this but Ive heard to many things about their saggy rear. Please post otherwise if thats not the case though. thanks guys.

I've installed the Progress & Illumina setup. Drops the car a little lower then H&R and rides about the same, very comfy. Can't tell you anything about the H-Techs.

My progress setup is fabulous. Drop is nice, and paired up with adjustable struts, the car rides very nice.

I have Progress pared up with KYB GR-2's and the ride is decent, I know it would be alot smoother if I had Illuminas though. I would get the Progress springs because hte drop is low and the ride is smooth and that is a tough combo to find.

No, I have H&R's. I've installed them on fellow org members cars. The thing I like about Progress springs is that they have a lot of windings which makes for a more linear spring. A more linear spring rides better then a very progressive spring.

I'm on Tein H-tech springs. It gives a even drop and smooth ride paired w/ my Tokico Illuminas shocks.
