Thinking about giving the g a drop so a few ?s.
I've got the tanabe gf210s and they've held up well over a year now (still with stock shocks). I just got back from Long Island where there roads are absolute *****. I'm slammed on my wheels and still no rubbing.

With coil overs, you install them, get a camber kit, adjust the car so everything is in spec and you're good to go, unless you want to make a change, then it focks everything up and you need to once again get it aligned. every time you make any changes you throw it out of spec and need to redo it.
For a DD car, this is a total PITA unless you're like most people I know who run coilovers and choose to just replace tires more often only getting half the life out of them since the insides turn to crap, rather then making sure the cars suspension is in within spec.
