Softest lowering springs/coilovers

I'm looking to lower my car .8-1". As this is now my daily, I'd like to retain as much of the factory ride as possible- the roads in Sydney are mediocre at best. I love the factory ride, but acknowledge that it's probably over damped and under sprung. What you, your mate or his dog run on their track cars is probably not helpful- I want to retain some comfort.

Not much is available here given the lack of good shops and taxes. The options seem to be:

KW V3
KW HAS
Eibach springs

I'm concerned that the V3s and HAS will be overly sprung and the car will be more unsettled on mid corner bumps, which leaves the Eibachs. Thoughts?

Is there another way to get the height?
