suspension dilemma

hey i have a 96 4dr civic ex and am looking for a better performing suspension. its all for looks its just as much performance. i got a guy who could hook me up with D2 coilovers for a good deal. ( here is a basic pick of what they are
http://www.4se.net/hst1/whatperformance/d2003.gif

i was also considering just doing springs, i narrowed it down to eiback prokits or sportlines, everyone is telling me sportlines, but i am just worried if my shocks can handle the higher spring rate of either the sportlines or pro kits, and if it will end up costing the same to just go for the D2's, i can save a bunch of money by just getting the springs, but i am just wooried about my shocks, if you guys hae any opinions id really appreciate it, would even entertain other, more favourable options if you have any,
thanks in advance

If you do just springs you will destroy your shocks in no time and you're ride will be bouncy. You need struts and springs to achieve a better performing suspension.
