I have used suplex with very little problems

Suplex are OEM springs. Just go with a pair of those. Takes 15 minutes to fit them. It takes longer to jack up the car and take the wheel off than it does to change the spring !

I fully intend on going with suplex.

Make sure you get the right springs - m sport are obvsiously different to non m-sport.

Great timing for me! Are the Suplex springs lower than that found on an E86 SE? Could anyone please provide the correct part numbers?

Suplex do replacement springs for both an SE & an M-Sport.

I believe the M-Sport ones are:

Front: Suplex - 06248
Rear: Suplex - 06231

Thanks for that, but I'm guessing these won't fit an SE car? Or will they? Actually, scratch that. Just found this:
