Default Springs vs Coilover

So at first i was pretty set on getting the tein htech springs... then i saw the eibach springs anndd their coilovers... ksport coilovers... now im completely unsure.


I want a 1-1.25" drop and i commute daily so i still want to keep some of that comfort. Springs or coilovers??? Are coilovers more maintenance than springs or vice versa?

It's about money at this point. If you can drop a stack on suspension, then of course, coilovers. But if you just want to spend $200 on an inch or so drop, then duh, springs. Maintenance is not a factor; people will say, "Oh, eh, uh, ah, uh, springs weaken your struts over time, boo hoo hoo." I tell 'em to shove it. Springs rock for what you're doing. You won't have issues. It's not a race car.
