Some questions you should ask yourself are:
Do I intend to track the car?

Do I want the bling factor of having expensive coilovers?
Do I want to have some performance with some style?
What is my budget?
Do I have a budget to rebuild the coilovers?
Do I have a budget to properly balance the car if I decide to get coilovers?

Based on the answers to these questions, I think you will have your answer as to what you should get.

From what you have posted so far though, my opinion would be that you should probably go with lowering springs instead of coilovers. I would go with RCE's springs, but it seems like you want more of a drop.

Everyone has differing opinions on what they want from their car, so figure that out first and plan accordingly.

Hope that helps.
I'd like to do a slight drop, but I want to preserve (and maybe improve) the stock handling. I'm considering the RCE springs, but I'm not sure whether to get the springs only, the lite pack (that comes with springs, oem camber bolts, and whiteline rear camber bushings), or the full starter pack that adds the whiteline top mounts.

I'm really just doing street driving so I don't need anything TOO aggressive, but I don't want the lowering springs to mess with handling.

Any advice?
