Springs will provide a more complete performance upgrade...

Better cornering - Stiffer spring rates help response time of turns and help your tires grip without skipping as much.

Better accleration - by stiffening the back end, you don't get that "droop" when accelerating

Better braking - no front end dip or very slight.

Probably other bennnies I didn't mention. Go with the H&R Sports 50103 and enjoy yourself!!

putting the springs on is not hard from what i've heard, but you will need a spring compressor. The shocks will wear prematurely because of less room to travel since the car is going to be lowered, so plan on getting new shocks in the future. my

I'm too slow to this poll ... I would have said "neither" ... sways definitely the way to go (didn't see any aftermarket sways in your sig). Best upgrade on the TL-S, IMHO. Springs would be a close 2nd. Rims would be 3rd.
