Default I'm going to order my suspension today...please help me decide what to get!!!

Here's the scoop...

I'm going to ordering my suspension from Eric/SPP through the February group buy.

The situation:
-I live in Pittsburgh where the roads are TERRIBLE.
-I have a set of 18x8 Oettinger RE's with 225/40 18's that I will be putting on after the suspension install.
-I drive a '96 2.8 with non-sport suspension. Very floaty & awfully high-riding.

I'm thinking that the H&R sport springs with Bilsteins are my best bet, but will the ride be low enough with my 18" wheels? I don't want a huge gap, but I fear that the race springs are too low for the roads around here.

Does anyone have pics of their car with the H&R sport/Bilstein setup and 18" wheels? I'd love to see some pics to help convince me that I should go that route.
