Has anyone tried Tanabe springs?

I know it has to be posted on tire&suspension section, but this section gets more hits and I need to know the answer urgently.

Just like the title says, has anyone used a set of tanabe lowering springs? I think they are Sustec NF210 that gives 1.5 drops front and rear.
Will they be close to the stock ride and also match the quality of H&R 50103 springs?
Thanks in advance.
I need help!!

Thanks for your reply.
but the thing is that I don't want my TL to bounce around like ricey civic..
Do you know if it bounces much? meaning too stiff? or very comfortable and also not too bouncy like H&R sport springs?
thanks.

The H&R Sport springs are bouncy? I never heard that, can anyone else who has H&R sports jump in on this one? What type of struts are you using akinaboy?

No, No, No..
I meant that H&R springs are not bouncy and comfortable.

Question Opinion needed.. Tanabe NF210 VS. H&R sprot springs

Hi.
Just like what it says on title, what do you guys think is better?
I found out Tanabe NF210 springs give very comfort ride close to stock ride quality and many forum members at acurazine suggest H&R 50103 for our tl's for comfort ride and quality.
Now, I'm trying to make a decision, but which one should I get?
thanks.
