Arrow Suspension Question? Quality?

Im currently looking at a Sach's Sport suspension Kit .. Included is "shocks and dampeners " I was going to purchase the H&r springs to go along with it. Is this all i need? I am new to a MB and do not know no much. I am looking for the most comfortable set up with a slightly sporty suspension. I want the most for my price. Are these good or do you suggest anything else that is more affordable and practical?

AT 80k on my 02 c230 coupe k .. what else do you recommend to replace as far as suspension goes thank you!

I am looking at this Sach's suspension kit minus the Springs on ebay, i submitted a best offer of 500 after shipping to him and am awaiting a reply. Are these a good deal for 500 shipped? and worth the money?

08 Silver Lexus IS250 (manual),73 air cooled super beetle-- black 2004 230 ss is gone
Eibachs are supposed to give the best ride. I had them w/Koni adjustables in my '04 SS sedan. Definitely lost some of the ride comfort but not really to the point where it wasnt acceptable.

C230 K
I have the Eibach/Sachs combination for 100K now. It's not comfortable on bad roads with 17" tires, but the handling is super. l also replaced the sway bars with the C32 bars. Much cheaper compared to Eibach.
