Question Recomendations for Coilovers.

Hello everyone. I've recently gotten the idea of getting coil overs for my Z. They look sooooo aggressive low to the ground. Problem is I don't have a lot of experience in buying parts for my car. I was hoping ya'll would give me some recommendations. I'm looking for something inexpensive and high quality. Anybody have experience w/ the BC coil overs? Appreciate any advice.

Love my new KW coils. They ride much smoother than my old stance and they seem like they handle better. Feels like a quality product.

I have the Bilsteins PSS coilovers and i think they're perfect for everyday use. To me having a compliant suspension on all surfaces rough and smooth is better than just a drop and high spring rates. Definitely look into the Bilsteins!
