A lot depends on what you want and will be doing with your car.
Most people seem to prefer Bilstein TCs for a nicer ride.
Bilstein HDs will give you a ride that is more sensitive to every imperfection in the road and for some feel that they can be quite harsh. The HDs seem to also increase your ride height a bit too (if you're concerned about lowering the stance of your car); I'm not sure if the TCs do the same also. People using HDs seem to prefer them for the performance aspects.
Others will eventually offer their opinions. You may want to try giving yourself a bit more time to research and decide on what you want/need.
