I read through this whole thread and I'm still slightly confused.
Since they are both the same price, provided the same drop, and only a 5 pound difference.
Which ones will give a better "comfort" rating as a daily driver?
Ultralite's or Sport ?

Sport will give the better ride if you want to get EXTREMELY precise about it. The difference is so little, the average person would never notice it. If you're doing all four corners, buy the Ultralite's.

Hi guys. Weve been getting alot of questions about our Ultra-lite springs lately. Here is some info on them.
Sport springs give you 1 inch lowering. Spring rate is 200lb front, 175lb rear.
The Ultralite sport springs are also 1 inch lowering, slightly lower spring rate at about 195lb front, 175lb rear. They are also a lighter weight wire for less unsprung weight. This reduces inertia. The slightly softer rate combined with the low inertia make the Ultra-lite sport springs the best choice for ride quality.
The street/comp springs increase the spring rate to 225lb front, 185lb rear. Also about 1 inch lowering.
For reference, factory spring rates are 165lb front 142lb rear for hardtop, 144lb front, 122lb rear on the convertible.

Street/comp springs = 3rd best ride comfort, 1st in handling
Sport springs = 2nd in ride, 2nd in handling
Ultralite = 1st in ride, 3rd in handling.
