IMO if you want a nice smooth ride that is also fairly stiff for corning then go with a non-coilover setup. The setup I am getting is eibach sportlines and kyb agx's which total is right around 600 bucks. The agx's give you great adjustability (soft for daily driving and stiff for time you are auto-xing). The eibachs are great springs and from what I have found offer a great daily driving setup since the spring rate is right around 600 (I think). This is enough but not harsh when compared to something like 10K omni's.
