Default In search of budget friendly full coilovers

Hey guys new to the forum so pardon the dumb question that I couldn't find on here yet. Getting used to this again as I have been out of the car game for some 10+ years.

Im wondering if anyone knows any budget friendly Coilovers systems for a EK 1999 Hatchback. I intended to eventually put a K or B series engine in this but want to work it from the ground up.

so let me know if you have any cheaper options for coilovers that won't interfere with a swap down the line thanks !

oh and if I would go 5 lug would this need a specific coilover over staying 4 lug

Thanks!

Max speeding rods, $200 or less. Had them on my crx and they rode actually surprisingly nice once I added some preload into them. Can’t beat it for the price honestly for a cheap setup.

Back in the day this brand was considered good. Did TEIN go down the ******* or is this still considered a good setup?
What I meant by cheap was something maybe as much as $500-$600 bucks but not going into that $900-$1600 dollar range set up

Also found these that I can add some ground control coilovers too. I always heard that was an amazing budget set up

Thanks for the reply by the way

As far as I know tien is stil good, if those are 500-600 they are probably along the lines of entry level but I’m sure still work great.
