Budget Coilover Suggestions
so i been reading on the forums that stance are great, but there way to much. im on a budget i seen a coilover by the name MDU there nice an cheap and i read a couple a threads and guys say they love them and others say there garbage. so i asking am i going to regret buying these????
there going on a daily driver and i just wanna lower the car maybe even slam it

IMO, Stance is better than MDU, but both would work for daily driving. MDU is on back-order and there is a waiting list. However, MDU is a lot cheaper. If you want to go the MDU route, look at Megan or Tein Basic coils.
Also, please learn the difference between "there" / "their" / "they're"
I'm being very picky, but this is basic third grade grammar.

What is your budget?
How bad are the roads in your area?
How much do you care about the ride/performance of your car compared to being slammed:
1 - I want my ish slammed, yo!
2 - I don't mind scraping stuff everywhere I go
3 - I want it low, but only scrape on speed bumps and transitions
4 - I don't want to scrape unless it's a really bad speed bump/transition
5 - I want my car to look low, but still drive and handle decent
6 - I want my car to look lowered and drive/handle average
7 - I want my car to drive and handle well on normal roads
8 - I want my car to drive and handle well on mountain/curvy roads
9 - I want my car to drive and handle well on the track
10 - I want my car to handle like a beast on road courses for competitive racing

There are many other options out there that are better... It just depends on your budget. The only way that coilovers manufacturers are able to lower the cost of their products is to cut corners.
If Stance is too expensive... Just save your money. Wait until you can afford something that isn't absolute trash. Stance, Megan, BC, Ksport, etc are all decent entry level coilovers. Anything below that is almost guaranteed to be awful.

there is a place, their is a possession,and they're is a thing...?? i dont remember.
KW v1 will not go that low, i went down to their recommended lowest setting and still seems quite high, bad advice for op, fair advice for the rest of the world. i will agree to save up for better parts.
I had used Cusco zero 1 and loved them, my brand new kW V1 are kinda meh in comparison as they are softer.

When I first put on my Stance Coilovers, I didn't realize that they had been dropped all the way down for shipping. My car was sitting on the tops of the tires and I couldn't get my floor jack out from underneath even thought it's a lowboy. I had to jack it back up and take those puppies off, re-adjust, and remount. So I can say the Stance's will go as low as you could want.

It all comes down to how you're going to use your car. I change my ride height, wheels, etc. too often depending on purpose to have to keep multiple sets of springs and swap them out. Coilovers are perfect for an mod addicted, multiple event attending, A.D.D. dude like me.
And eventually, I'll get some really nice ones, but I had to start somewhere.
OP, my advice is to have fun and do whatever makes sense for your car and your budget.
