Ride quality for DD

I want to drop my car because I have just purchased and installed Avant Garde M368 19" rims....


What would give me the best stance and best DD ride???

Eibach or H&R springs?

Or should i just save money up and get Coilovers?

which option and why??

eibach is a little softer compared to the hr sport springs, but the hr sport has a slightly more drop. I would save up money and get CO. I am in the same situation as your right now and trying to make that decision. Good luck

I find my KW V2 to be extremely comfortable for DD use, never even needed to go close to full soft on the settings to get great ride quality.

I find the Eibach Pro Kit springs to be quite comfortable for a DD.

I just recently installed vmr v701 19" lowered on kw v1. My car is daily driven. After searching and doing my homework, I've concluded that coilovers were the way to go. Ride is better comparable to stock and aesthetically very pleasing!
