I have been doing race susp setups/ corner balancng for years, and the past 2 years with ASD. TRUST ME!! PBM's are no where near the quality of some others. But on the other hand thier are $7500 coilovers w/external resevoirs (which is what i deal with daily) and those are FFAAARRR superior to any tein, stance, bc, pbm and all that. So i guess it mainly depends on if you want low and comfortable or whatever. Some like stiff some like luxury feel. My suggestion to you is, find some friends or local CL members with some coils and see how you like them. Beause "good" to you, and "good" to another has alot of variables.

he wants to go low. if you wanna dump your car and don't use air, ride quality really shouldn't matter.
i have pbms, i'm not dead. my car hasn't fallen apart, and my back hasn't gone out.
they'll be fine. and they're not too expensive.
My SC used to be about one inch off the ground when I had my Falken springs and TT struts. To be honest, it put most cars to shame when it came to being low. It progressively got lower and lower, but I never got any pics of it when it was completely slammed. It sucked driving it like that too. I felt every little bump and crack in the road.
I'd only go that low again if I can keep the ride quality close to stock. Being slammed is overrated unless you have air suspension.

I forgot to mention, if you want a crazy low drop for the cheapest price, I recommend getting Supra TT struts and Falken springs like I had. If you can find a set of the Falken springs, it'll give you a ridiculous drop. I got my set of Falkens and OEM Supra TT struts for $300.
