I would say buy Eibachs pro spring kit from www.european-parts.net
For about $300 you couldn't complain with that

If price is a problem even with $300 eibachs, go some $150 Lovells or King Springs.I wouldn't reset a spring personally raises questions about spring strength and unadjusted spring rate(better ride than Kings but bottoms out the susp hardcore). Plus if you ever wanted to bring it back to stock having the unmolested standard spring comes in handy.
