I have the exact same setup on my EJ1. Its a good set up if ur not looking to dish out the money for full body coilovers. It handled nice and the drop was pretty low surprisingly (rear didnt sit as low as i would have liked) but i cant complain really.

H&R sport, nice ride, sport drive with comfort
the rear of the car is a little bit higher.

good daily setup. Not a fan of AGX's though. Get Koni Red or best Yellow.

I've got H&R race springs and Koni shocks (perferred). Height and ride is perfect for daily.

The H&R race springs definitly have a much nicer stance than the H&R sport springs...IMO.

i have H&R sports w/ koni strt.
If i did it again. i would spend the money on Yellows, red at the least.

The STRT (orange) work ok with the drop, but the springs are a little on the soft side for these struts. I did some research, and ppl are saying these struts work better with higher spring rates. So, I put in spring spacers to increase spring rate, and to lift the car 0.5" (i was rubbing like crazy), and now everything feels great!

Without spring spacers:
