Think about how many times you will be adjuting the height though, if that is one of the only reasons you value coilovers. Lowering springs will lower your car, and you most likely will only do it once on a street driven car. The lowering springs will also be considerably cheaper for a good set (don't cheap out on anything), and while there are coilovers available for your price range, there is no reason to spend more than you need to for something you won't end up using anyways.

I found a set of Eibach Pro Damper struts for 250 on ebay. They were brand new too. I think you just have to look if you want to get a hell of a deal.
