I would save $200 more and get some BC racing coilovers with custom spring rates. They also offer an extreme low option.

I have had my K Sports for a while now and I like them. The best part about them is the ride height adjustment happens on the tube body and not the spring perch so when you raise or lower the car you dont lose and suspension travel. They are actually setting up a group buy on preludepower right now IIRC. Either way there is a guy on there that is a dealer for them who will take care of you.

I've got my sights set on Form & Function coilovers. What are your goals? General consensus is Form and Function are better DD and KSport is better for sometimes racecar

Thought id update this, i went with the koni/gc combo since that was overwhelmingly the best combo for my price range, still see people asking questions about this setup would be happy to do my part in answering any questions. Installed them myself thanks to the DIY threads on here. here's a picture of the final product
