Default Recommended Coilovers

I am purchasing a set of coilovers in the next couple of weeks. I am keeping it to anywhere from $1000 to $1300. I have read a ton of post on here regarding different brands, but I wanted to ask from my perspective.

Currently I am leaning towards BC Racing. Would the Swift Spring upgrade be needed? Would 10/8 be correct? I am running 18x8 225/40/18 Front with 18x9 255/40/18. The offset will be flush to the fender on both. I intend on dropping it to fill any gap, but I believe it will be close to 1-1.5' in front and .5' in rear. I hear that cheap coilovers will have a bounce to them and I am looking to avoid that. I am looking for something that will run closer to OEM, but leaning towards slightly stiffer. This will be for daily driving.

Any recommendations? I am in SoCal.

I just bought BC Racings a couple months ago. Sick *** coils and custom made to your car. Call up, or email, figs and they'll hook you up.
