Cool Which Spring & Shock Combo is most Compliant / less harsh?

I have a 2005 Mustang GT. I am having a difficult time deciding which Springs to go with Koni SRT Shocks / Struts.

1.Hotchkis
2.Steeda Sports
3.BMR

Car will be mostly daily driver with a little bit of light weekend open track for fun.
I just want car to have little less body roll, take turns better.

I am thinking springs, shocks / struts, camber bolts and adjustable PHB.
I am going to keep stock alloy wheels on car, think they are 17 inch wheels, look like cobra wheels.
*I have been told that I do not need aftermarket sway bars for me car since I am running stock wheels.
*Would I benefit much from aftermarket sway bars or is above decent enough?
Thanks, Gerald.

Oh yeah. Another reason why I am having such a difficult time deciding springs is because knowing that the Mustang has a stick axle in back that I want ride least harsh possible, not choppy, uncomfortable for passengers, especially those seated in back. Thanks, Ger.

I have the steeda sport springs and love them. I have heard really good things about bmr springs too. I have the koni sports and set them to full soft. I have been told this is similar to the feel of the strt Konis. The ride is very comfortable. I do prefer a stiffer more European style ride personally. I think this set up gets our cars close to that.

I have the Eibach Sportlines with Koni yellow struts and shocks, with Eibach camber bolts and BMR panhard bar. And I like the ride. It's a little more stiffer than stock but I'm pretty low and I have 19's.
