Which route to go...

So I have the option to go with either springs or coilovers. I bought a set of megan coilovers but they are back ordered until the end of May so I got a refund. I don't plan on autocrossing the car but I also don't want a **** ride. Right now I have k-sport springs(paid $50 for them) and I hate the ride quality. So just a few opinions, I want a nice level stance, nice ride quality and I like coilovers for the adjustability and I don't think I'm going to get all that from just springs. Since I basically answered that part of the question, what coilovers should I go with?

If you hate the ride quality of lowering springs, coilovers aren't gonna be any better

I just meant these are too soft, the front struts bottom out over every little bump. Stiffness doesn't bother me. I have had plenty of lowered cars but they were honda/acura and subaru so Tein was the way to go there. I hate changing platforms and having to re-learn who makes quality parts.
