Best for a daily driver would be what's on it already. Took a dozen engineers thousands of hours of work to develop the suspension. If your not doing anything or racing with it why change it?

Research coilovers and find a decent set within your budget. Most companies will sell them with different spring pairings depending on the usage. Street setups will be softer, although expect a harsher ride over your stock setup, regardless of the springs.
