Define 'better'.
Moogs are dirt cheap.

Are you gonna be using stock struts? If yes get the moog cargo coils. thumb
By "better" I mean which gives you the best handling/stiffness/ride comfort/lowered look for the $$$ you shell out.

For the most stiff and the lowest your going to want to go with the intrax. If you buy them i would get them from newlevelmotorsports.com the springs are about 170 from them.

whoohoo
I have Intrax springs on mine, for about 2 years now. My car is not a daily driver and thank god - it can be a punishing ride with the 17" wheels and 24mm FSB/26mm RSB combo.

are the moogs stiffer than stock. I think that I need new springs and struts but I live in western pennsylvania and we don't do flat road(haha), I have more potholes on my drive to work than there probably are in all of california. not to meantion the speed bump are all built for pickups(5x8)not nice. I just want something stiffer than stock but near stock ride height since I need the clearance.

I'm happy with the ride too. Just the drive into work has more potholes, ruts, torn up asphalt and concrete than I care for. I have to slow down for every dip and speed bump too. In the Jeep, I barely feel any of them and don't need to slow down either.

Any new replacement is stiffer than stock. If you go with the SHO originals in the rear (if you went to a junkyard or wanted the exact springs), you are jipping yourself of an extra coil that was added to the replacements to enhance the strength and prevent fatigue, sloppy ride, and broken springs.
Also, I posted this in a topic, but have thus far gotten no replys:
I want new springs in the front. I have a stock ride height with new coils in the rear and new Sensa-Trac gas struts all around. I want to lower the car in the front only, by about one inch. Is just stupid? Will it hurt my handling and make the car plow and dive more, or will it help with launches and cornering? Can I use my snew struts with a lower spring? For more info, please see my post "SPRINGS IN FRONT" on this section of the forum.
