PROS:
-Affordable [1]
-Doesn't reuse the factory tophats unlike other entry coils such as Tein Streetbasis z
-Has dampening adjustment [2]
CONS:
-Maximum drop is 2.4" front, 2" rear (I only want to drop 1" to 1.5" so not a big deal)
-No camber adjustment (the 1-1.5" drop probably won't affect the camber too much) [3]
If anyone has these or is able to give me some insight about these, I would really appreciate it. Are there any other negatives I should know about?

Welcome to the forums.
1/ A totally meaningless term. I'm guessing you mean they are within your budget.
2/ Lots of clicks are often a marketing pitch: 32 clicks is more than 24 clicks therefore the most clicks win.
KW V3 12 clicks rebound and 12 clicks compression. Tein SRC 16 clicks comp and 16 rebound. AST 5200 11 clicks comp 12 rebound.
If you can't tell the difference between one click adjustment there is no point.
3/ Really?
If you want a decent ride with short suspension travel you are going to have to pay for it. As @
churchx said above, the car doesn't have much rear travel to begin with. Yeah, you can drop the car on a budget but don't expect much in the way of comfort or damping.
