Just recently purchased h&r springs with blue tokicos. What a horrible ride. I don't think it's the H&Rs, but the tokicos. Does anyone know of shocks/struts that could match with the H&Rs? 2g
 
illuminas are pretty nice but the non adjustables I heard are a little rough.

Check out some old suspension threads in that category, they go over this alot.

This badhandling AND ride is usually explained by you have springs that drop too much for there low spring rates. Therefore you may hit the bumpstops. A really Low ride DOES NOT = better handling
Also, your shocks were designed with stock springs in mind. The only shock i have heard of that works WELL with a lower ride height is konis. If the shocks aren't valved corectly then they will overpower the dampening provided by shock. Giving you that lovely bouncy ride and bad handling.
