Hello all I was looking to buy some some springs and shocks but I see I can get coilover for about the same. I was looking at these two brands I have read up a lil bit on them but I wanted to see what people thought about the brands..

Found BC for $998 and Stance for $1,134

The BC Racings have 30 damping level while Stance GR+ have 15. Does this even matter?

How much stiffer is the ride quality over springs as this would be my first set of coilovers on any car?

I dont wanna lower the car to an extreme I like both Form and Function.

One last question do these coilovers when you adjusting them does the manufacture thread the actual shock body, so you are expanding or compressing the actual length of the shock that the coilover is a part of. Or do they literally need to turn a spring perch to compress the spring against the top hat, which lowers the vehicle?

So if anyone could tell me their thoughts and/or suggestions it would be appreciated. Thanks a bunch.

I would also be getting Sways and SPC F/R Camber Kit.
