Opinions on getting replacement coil springs from Napa

So im getting tired of my suspension being hard and bouncing me all over the place. I really dont want to lift my runner because I have 30'' tires on it, and it will look goofy. I just want the ride to be nice and smooth.

What do yall think about getting replacement springs at napa?
Am I going to be wasting my money or should I just get some OME 900s for $50-ish more?

I did some searching and the only thing im worried about is spending money and time on new springs and having my runner sit lower.

lol OEM? Or OME?

Search O'riley's Advance and AZ and you'll see that same part # pop up.

Napa's clutches are the POS "Perfection" ones Advanced sells.

And "True Stop" P# will be the same as a "Cardone" over at O'rileys...

et cetera...
