personally, i have riden in a few subes with teins (flex, SS, & s.Techs) & i feel they are a bit much for the daily drive. Im not sure if you plan of runnin SCCA or anything but maybe look into the Helix coilovers (www.500whp.com has the best price on them) or save your self even more money & just pick up some drop springs & stiffen up the car by puttting on some struts & sway bars. I feel that as long as you get a spring with a good spring rate & doesnt drop the car car too low & you dont drive like an *** every where you wont blow your strut... but if you really want the SS then check these out...

You may also want to look into BC Racing's offerings right now, so far good reviews and prices. I've been looking into them for a while. Alot of people have been touting them as the Tein Flex levels.
The problem with springs is that even on more conservative springs like Progress, strut problems will still be there after a while. Hawaii streets don't get better everday, they get worse.
