Default Coilover options

92 sc300. Planning on na-t after coilover and diff bushings. Im looking to upgrade my blown out struts to coilovers. I dont like slammed to the ground lowered cars but i would like my sc about an inch or 2 lower. Im not trying to spend too much money so thats why bc or godspeed isnt an option. I am daily driving my vehicle though so am looking for comfort as well. any options?
Am leaning towards megan ez street but tien street basics are my second option. Depends on reviews i guess.
P.s. sorry for not searching.

Save and wait, or see if a nice used set pops up on the classifieds. I'm not really a fanof the MEgan EZ's, the Megan LP's are better IMO. Don't know much about the tein basics either, so we'll see if someone chimes in. Should be able to find used BC's, Stance, Megan LP's, etc on the classifieds here with enough patience in the $600-$700 range for a used set.

If you want a cheap solution get stock MKIV suspension, which is 1in lower than stock

if i buy a set of coilovers, i'm not gonna get used. no offense intended but i like new stuff so i can get the warranty with it. but if the products i'm asking about arent recommended then i'll save up a little bit more so i can buy a better quality part. this is a car i plan on keeping for a long long time so its not something that i dont want to be done right. and czar07, thanks but coilovers are really the only thing i'm looking for.

well from what I've seen, catmandew keeps recommending these. they look like theyre good and reputable and since I've heard good things about them i'm gonna go ahead and get these.
godspeed mono rs 12kg front 8kg rear. now the hard part, save money so I can get them. lol. I got edc coming around the corner and that's a 300-350 dollar experience for me cause I drink a lot when i'm there. haha.
