Poll: Coilovers or Pedders/LNF setup?

Okay so I've been going back and forth with myself with this debate and I figure it's time to see what more people think. I've had my Megan Racing Coilover setup on my car now for about 1.5-2 years and honestly, I really like them. They handle amazing, ride decently (except for crappy roads) and I love the stance they give. But a few months ago I bought the Pedder spring/LNF strut/shock combo because I wanted something with a softer ride and similar handling and I thought it was the best way to go. Rallycobalt and I met up to install them a few weeks ago and the backs went on no problem, but the front end-link bolt was a ***** and long story short, we couldn't do the install so we just put the coilovers back on the rear.

So now I have the coilovers on the car and the Pedders/LNF combo sitting in my garage and one of them has to go. So what do you guys think I should do? Keep the coilovers or go with the Pedders. The only downfall to the coilovers is their harshness at times on poor roads. And the only downfall of the Pedders (from what I've read) is that it's not the lowest drop ever.

So if you've had either (or have had both), post up your thoughts and opinions!!!

Depends on what you're really looking for.

Pedders are more geared towards handling than looks while coilovers you can get both.

I wanna go coilovers eventually for the reason above.
