Default Suspension Upgrade for DD

So before I get flamed for not searching -- I have done so and done a TON of reading on different suspension upgrade options for our cars.

Basically I am looking for the best option for my 2015 base Z which is my DD around Houston, TX. Don't have any intentions of tracking the car, but the occasional 'spirited' driving when allowed.

From what I have read, it seems that going with new struts and springs might be my best option over coilovers given I DD the car.

Option 1: about $1,400 shipped

Tokico struts
Eibach springs
SPC front and rear camber package

This lowers the car a bit more I would like for Houston street and getting out of my driveway, but is the most mild drop of any springs available.

Option 2:can be had for $1,350 shipped

KW Variant 1 Coilovers

KW seems to be very well spoken of for the Z. I like these as they are fixed on dampening rate which I don't care to control, and I would only lower the car the minimum these allow: which is .6" front and .4" rear. With this mild of a drop, I'd be hoping I could get away without the camber kit, and would likely be better around H-town.

Time for input and thoughts on these two setups. Appreciate your time and feedback!
