Default Best spring and shock combo? Tein?

From all the rides I have been in coilovers are just too aggressive for the street. Especially the streets in SOCAL.

So I am thinking I'd like to find a nice spring/shock setup. I'd also like to make sure both are a "system", designed to work together.

Tein seems to offer the subtle drop I am looking for in a spring, but what shock do they have that matches up nicely? Adjustability would be a nice thing too.

Do the Tein basics suffer frmo the clunky-clank sound people have been getting with the FLEX system?

that sound actually has alot to do with some kits not coming fully tight in the rear. Basically all you need to do is tighten down the rear shock and it should go away.
