depending on your budget, i would do spring and shocks... they might be blown, and if you are going to go through all that trouble, might as well get it knocked out all at once

to be honest, im 20 and never driven a car with coils so i dont know what would be the cheapest but also cost effective way.. heard coils are good but not sure of the cons and pros between the two

do some reading on here, educate yourself... get an idea of what you want. my shocks and springs were about as much as stance coils.

120k miles...start checking bushings if you havent. other than that, unless you have adjustable suspension youll never get it level because of many factors (stiction, uneven ground, etc etc etc).

just dont worry about it.
