Default Need help with my suspension

I currently have eibach springs with stock shocks. Thats how it was when I bought it. But my shocks are almost worn out and I was looking to upgrade shocks but im thinking about just upgrading to coilovers. I need something that is good on street and couple days at the track. The thing is I been searching for weeks and im still confused, I been thinking about getting buddy clubs, tein basics, stance, tanabe sustec fives. Those are couple I been looking at.

The next thing besides the brand was I been reading about true coils in back and all the different things about it. Now I really dont know if its going to be ok or if I should get a coilover that is true in front but oem style in the back. Any help I would really appreciate.

hks hipermax 3's(non-sports) would be a good option for you imo.

they are very compliant on the street and decent on the track. they use an oem spring location in the front and rear.

try to get the highest quality you can reasonbly afford. for example get the tein flexes instead of the basics. i don't think the basics will be enough for track days.

I have heard good things about the buddyclubs and the tanabe and those are a good price. I also heard that BC racing was a good choice and it keeps the stock location on the rear suspension setup.
