Default springs?

what kind of springs do i need to make the rear of my car more balanced with the front .
It looks like it's hard to lower the back and not too much on the front
i have the feeling that i need to lower the back before i put any sway bars to really be in control of the car.

thanks too all of you

I tried the Eibachs- I didn't like them, and I know a lot of other people don't either. I've since switched to Tein HTechs, and they seem to work pretty well- apparently, they're the only springs designed specifically for the SRT 4 (excluding the coilovers, of course). They lower the back a little more than the front, levelling the car a bit. It does corner more solidly, but I suspect it's the springs and has nothing to do with the back being lower, since most of the mass of the car is forward.
I'll probably go with the Mopar (KW) coilovers soon- I just didn't want to spend that kind of dough without doing my research and knowing exactly what I wanted, but they seem to be the best option.
Stage 2 first, though.[sm=icon_sneaky.gif]
anyway, that's my .02.

I'll post some pics when I get back to WA (in a week or so).

How about Tein? I have always heard good things about them. I have their full suspension kit on my Civic and that thing was beautiful. On Ebay, they have the springs for $125 + $20 shipping new. I am probably going to pick up a set.
