Default 2015 Golf TSI owner: Springs or Coilovers?

Hello my fellow enthusiasts! Just picked up a 2015 MK7 TSI. This is my first Golf and notice the suspension is quite soft; noticeable body roll. With that said, I am considering coilovers or springs. Any suggestions on brands folks would recommend. Thanks in advance.

Did some research and made a decision to keep costs minimal. Going with Nuespeed Springs: Volkswagen Golf VII 1.8T Gen3 Suspension Springs - 55.70.08 - Race Springs Set - ES#2826017

Thanks.

Default ST X coilovers ordered!

Went ahead and went with coilovers instead of sport springs from ECS Tuning.

A little disappointing the lack of responses in this forum; however I will contribute where I can and provide feedback on the ST x coilovers.

Just got the ST x coilovers installed by local Indy shop. Car handles great, nice stance. I had an alignment done as well. The front left needs additional toe-out camber with the current drop. My tech said it will need a camber kit to get it right. Alignment prior coilover install, the same left front was out from the factory. Hmmm. Doesn't surprise me being that the car is made in Mexico, not Germany. Anyway, I am very please with ST x coilovers, very good for the price entry level coilovers from parent H&R... (but I have experienced better, and paid more too). I only need to install wheel spacers for the final touch.

Shout out to ECS Tuning, ST x coilovers and Glen, Scottie, Jim at Theos Automotive in Peachtree City, GA.
