i need advise on suspension

alright guys, i have had my civic for almost a year. i told myself that with this car i wasnt going to do anything to it but its been vary tempting. im do for my 10,xxx mile tune up and then i dont have to see honda for another 20,xxx. so that means i have time to modify. i need some advise on which is the most comfortble ride with this civic.like which shock/spring combo is best. thanks guys/girls

whats your budget?

you can either go with a spring/shock combo or full coilovers for best quality as for suspension.
