I just wanted to get some opinions on a suspension upgrade on my 08 Bullitt. The car is a street car and a daily driver so I dont need something outrageous like the Eibach R2's but i do want the car lower. I was looking at either getting H&R Street-Perf. Coil-Over for about 1100 or Steeda Ultra Lite springs and a set of shocks from them. Is it worth the extra cash for colilovers or is there something better in that range?

daily driver = springs and shocks

occasional track days = coilovers

u can do either one for a DD but i'd go with a springs and shocks setup. if you want it to handle even better lca, uca, etc.... coilovers give you the option of how low you want to go. but everytime you change the ride height you change your camber and will need alignment. its up to you. if you do go coilovers KW's are the way to go.
