Default HKS coilovers

i was wondering if anyone knew the differences between the hks c-compact coilovers and the hks hipermax wg coilovers? i'm looking to get coilovers to be lower than i already am. i am currently on tanabe df210s on my bb but definately want to go lower.
i heard the hks ones go pretty low but if anyone know of any other coilover that they would recommend, please give your input and exact specs if u could. i am not looking to adjust the damper just basic coilover and shock that will dump the bb.

thanks!

well to be honest i wouldnt buy HKS for this car....kind of a waste of money. I would go with something more modest and not as "hardcore". Tein seems to have something for everyone's style of driving and car. The hypermax's are sport use....so if your an autocrosser by all means buy them. I just know there expensive compared to most other companies, but they are guaranteed quality so......

I think the HKS are perfect if you just wanna be dumped. IIRC, they are height adjustable only, and I hear they are quite comfortable. They are expensive, but extremely good quality. But to answer your question, I don't know the difference between c-compact and hipermax wg ???

I have the HKS c-compact coilovers. I dont know about calling them 'hardcore'. These arent for autocrossing at all. They are really nice riding. They arent even expensive. I got them for around 1100. I wouldnt go with tein only because you cant go that low with them. The front(HKS) can go down like 4 inches or more; the back a lil more than 3. Also, the HKS will probably outlast the car in terms of quality.
