Should I get a full set of coilover for like $1300?

Or...

Should I buy new shocks/struts and lowering springs and a rear sway bar and front strut tower brace for like $900?

 

Depends what you're into, Some people buy coils for stance, or racing/control.

People usually buy springs just for a drop.

 

Well it's my daily driver. I know most people say that coilovers are a waste unless you're racing and then they need to be rebuilt every so often but that for a street car the other non coilover setup would be plenty sufficient.

 

just get shocks/struts/springs. as you said, coilovers would be a waste in your case
