    I daily drive my car with $440dollar (delivered) coilovers.. You have to be careful with speed humps etc, but its not that harsh. My missus doesnt even complain.

    What coils are they? Hahah lucky your mrs is understanding .

    Save up for coils. Will save you time and money for when you want to go lower. I ride on $440 coils and they arnt really that bad for the price tag.

    I bought my car with lowered springs on it. And the ride harshness was exactly the same when I switched to coils. You really do get what you pay for though.

    FK Streets went in today and they are a really nice firm ride without being harsh.
    Well worth the money as 'Bang for Buck' goes.
