I have the OP's car now, we settled on VAP Springs

(OP) Previous owner had problems with the H&R Springs, I think they could not get alignment to spec and wore through rear tires way too fast. With the VAP springs, rear was able to get in spec, tire wear is very even. As far as ride, its pretty close to stock ride quality. My only beef is the rear looks a tad lower than the front. Since I don't like rubbing the front on steep driveways and the like, may add a tiny shim to raise the rear, or just live with it since the car still looks awesome....

Shimming the back would make rubbing worse in the front.
