Need help picking coilovers

Hey guys, just got a 2014 BRZ so new to this forum and need a little help picking coilovers. I DD the car (about 100 miles round trip to Work and back) and I plan to do some autocross with the car (not too much just about 4-6 times a year). I want some good quality coilovers but I am on a little bit of a budget. I would like to lower the car a little more than most of you would probably approve of also. I know it will take some of the performance away and I will probally get a ton of crap for this but I really like the look of a low car. So are there coilovers out there that are in the price range of about $1,500 USD that can give me the low I want with still a decent performance for track days?

Appreciate it guys!

Well you might have to find out the hard when you autocross, that when you have an aggressive drop your car might perform to its potential.

I drive 100+ miles a day on BC DR series coilovers. Autox all the time and track day set to full soft. Works great to me. Little alignment and has took me to 1st in a few stx fields. So I’m bias. Cough “just for lowering”

Fortune Auto 500's 7k/8k with swift springs... or just preorder the Counterspace garage spec tein flex A's for like 1,400. They do their research 100%. Plus both Tein and Fortune Autos are rebuildable stateside.
In before the lock too lol... very wrong section
