Not too many members here with Megan coils on their IS. You might be able to find more reviews on my.is

Ride is subjective so what's stiff for one person is soft to another, and vice versa. There are many first-time coilover owners who are happy with Megans, but long term durability is not as clear. Could be a good thing or a bad thing.

The Megans will ride ok for the street, depends on how you like your ride though..soft..stiff..

The BC's will ride better.

My buddy has the Megans for a while now. Loves the ride and has drove over 30k on them so far with no issues.

I've owned 2 sets of Megans and a set of K-Sports...all of them were on previous NA-T SC300s though. I personally liked the price more than anything else, as they were about the same price as decent aftermarket springs and struts with more adjustability and better ride(subjective). I'd recommend either, as I had great luck with both. I'm currently on stock struts with sportlines on my IS, but will be ordering another set of K-Sports when I get back from this deployment.
