Coileys or shock absorber
#35
hands down the b8 kit if you're going for lows and looks with more ride comfort retained.

I adore my GHA kit, but they are definitely harsher riding than lowering springs. It's the trade off for epic handling though on a relative budget. You can make them nearly as comfortable as b8s with lowering springs, by adjusting the rebound settings, but it obviously reduces the damping of the springs, meaning you get a more 'bouncy' ride if that makes sense...

But in short, if you want a more comfortable ride, get billys. Tbh though I'd say b6s would suit you better if you're not going for handling; iirc b8s are both more expensive and firmer than the b6s...
