Coilovers:

BC
B&G
XYZ
D2
Ksport

Which is the best option to get low, stay reasonably comfortable, and have some durability?

xyz are springs, there are pedder coilovers

my ksports are fine, bouncy at times. the rear damper control is inside the shock instead of visible like other brands. on the front strut the endlink part is free flowing not attached to the bottom perch like stance, which means if something comes loose that will move around and hit the wheel.

i had it happen on both sides, once was pretty bad to the point where i had to pull over and tighten it. haha it locked the wheel up grinddddnnn on my old wheels

rear shock isnt adjustable length wise

i say ksports are for u jk

I'd still only ever buy KW V2 coilovers but those are likely out of your price range and handling is most important to me so...

If you want low get BC extreme low or Stance coilovers if you want a mix of low and handling I'd say get the regular BC coilovers. Haven't really heard much on the D2 coilovers although the look like a good set, didn't even know B&G made them for the cobalt until now, Pedder coilovers were left out?

I am a little curious why the fronts are 8k and the rear 4k. when we need the stiffness in the back. Personally i would go with BC. either extremely low or regular depending on what you want. OR.. try to find a set of the custom Stance coils. they go kinda low and are nice and stiff

Go with BC. Ask for different rates to the springs, 6k front 7k rear, MINIMUM.

The stance coils are softer in the rear than in the front as well. There are currently no companies that make a matched set, or a set with stiffer rears.

BC will generally swap out springs with a different rate if you ask nicely.
