looking for nice riding springs

looking to get a drop on my new fit not used to driving somthing thats off the ground like a truck coming from a hatch 2" off the ground well i bought the fit becouse i have a baby on the way. what kind of springs could i get that ride smooth without bouncing around like a stock factory ride with a nice low look (not to low tho) and if you have some good choices show me what thay look like on your rides thanx

if you dont want to be low, and want a stock like ride. then get the sprint springs.

if you want a stiff ride, then eibach sportlines,tein s.techs, or skunk 2 will do the job.

I'm very pleased with the Progress springs. The offer a modest drop, 1.5F/1.3R and my 4 year old Daughter doesn't mind the ride at all!

You'll want struts and shocks to go with those springs. Tokico just starting shipping this past week. Check out shox.com. Look for Eibach Pro Kit springs besides what was mentioned above.
They have a drop of 1.6"F / 1.3"R.
As quoted from a website: The Eibach Pro-Kit lowering spring set improves your vehicle's looks and performance. Pro-Kit springs lower the vehicle's center of gravity, reducing body roll in the turns, dive under braking, squat during acceleration and give the car a more solid secure feel at all times. Pro-Kit Springs also minimize the ugly fender gap that makes a car look "lifted." Eibach Pro-Kit Springs..."The look that performs."
