Suspension Recommendations

Greetings! New to Boxster ownership and researching suspension options.

I have a 2001 Boxster S with 62k miles on it. A previous owner put in HR lowering springs about 14 years ago at around 25K miles. The struts and shock absorbers are stock. The ride height is quite low and our roads in the Bay Area are pretty beat up (especially where I live in the East Bay). I'd like to swap out the springs for something a little higher.

One of the rear wheel bearings is being replaced right now so it would be a good time to swap them out. What would you do?

- just swap out the springs - go back to stock springs, US M030 Springs, ROW M030 Springs or something else?
- Go for a new suspension kit because the current struts may be warn out from riding low for so long?
- Go with a ROW M030 suspension kit because all the cool kids are doing it? If so, where can I buy it for a reasonable price?

This is will be a weekend fun car that may see an occasional driving event....not a an autocross or track star.
