Default looking for quality suspension for 850 wagon

I have a 94 850 turbo wagon. Blk on Blk w type R wheels. I have the ipd comp. and exhaust. i want some quality suspension, and am willing to spend some bucks. i want something that rides real good, but is still very sporty. i want a coilover system I think, but like I said my main concern is to get good ride quality. the car now rides like ****. I am assuming it is because there is 180,000 miles and it has been across the country and back twice.

I have been reading more and feel that the bilstein shocks are the best. But I can't decide b/t the ipd springs which lower 1"-1 1/4" 23mm 20-30% stiffer, or the eurosport which lower 1.4" 35mm. The eurosport have a set specifically for the wagon. Has anyone evr installed the eurosport suspension package by sachs

If you are willing to spend the bucks, KW coilovers are the way to go.
