everyone here has different opinions on springs but i myself bought hotchkis because they were cheaper. Tein is a better choice.
If your thinking shocks go with Koni adjustables... dont choose anything else, unless of course you want coilovers. Thats justa whole different story. I myself cant use coilovers i live in Puerto Rico and the potholes are craters...
But use Koni adjustables, kind of hard to find because of the demand but the wait is well worth it and if you have the money get the progress rear anti sway bar. This combo of parts will help your xA turn alot smoother.
Total for all of this should be
Koni F&R shocks = $540
springs $150-$200
Progress sway bar = $125
total = $865
The problem is.. after this there is no coming back your are going to want to change part after part and part and you will never be satisfied.

Well I don't know anything about Tenzo. But if you would like another suggestion I say Hotchkis or TRD. Both have a good ride and great handling. The Hotchkis springs are a little lower than the TRD's so if I had to choose one I'd say Hotchkis. Now as far as shocks/struts go you could go TRD. They're cheaper than the Koni but if you have the $$$ for adjustables go for it. If you're interested check let me know.
