ok as you guys know, well some of you I sit pretty dang low. I am running on stock struts that have bottomed out and using eibach sportline springs. I am now in a situation that I need to get rid of my rough ride. I know my struts are shot and I am stuck in a decision to get new struts that work with my sportlines or get new springs and struts with a less of a drop. I am about to get married soon and I am looking and planning for the future of a family. I love the neon to much to get rid of it so it will be turned into my family car. I need your opinion on what I should do. I don't mind keeping my sportlines as long as I can get a less bouncy ride out of them with some nice struts. But to I am tight on cash due to moving to the southern part of the state. So what should I do guys?

you're not going to find a strut that unbouncifys the sportlines.

^ Absolutely. Get Mopar springs and different struts (or cartridges).

invest some money into your suspension.
Keep your ride the way it is for right now and screw the struts. Yes, that's right I'm telling you to neglect your suspension for a moment.
At this point in your life you don't have children. There's nothing a child in the back seat would hate more than a rough ride. (oh, and a loud exhaust... whoops)
Save enough money and then invest in a coilover suspension. Get some mopars, BC, Tein, whatever you'd like. This way you can control how low you'd like it, and also how soft or hard you'd like it. You can also adjust it if you'd like.

Yes they are settled the pics were taken at ground level so maybe that is why the look so high. You cant really be super low and have a good ride. Do not buy any of the shit coilovers for these cars only go for Mopar/KW or Koni
