finally need to replace shocks all around, suggestions ???

since i finally have to replace all my shocks i was thinking of getting coilovers to drop the car, and have the option of adjusting it higher or lower later, any suggestions on whats good and moderately priced? i have the stock 15" rims on the car with pirelli touring tires (nothing special, 205's i think...) please write in and let me know what you've installed on your ride and how it affects the performance whether its a hard ride or softer or not noticable (which i think i want), thanks in advance!!!!

If you want ride height adjustablility, get Hayames. If you want firmness adjustability with the option of using different springs or coilovers, get Koni's. My Koni's are sweet, I can go from full soft(tiny bit firmer then stock) to two times stock firmness. Its nice knowing that whatever suspension item(coilovers, other springs, swaybars, etc) I install I can tune my shocks to it. Also Koni's have a life time warranty and will handle just about anything you can throw at them.
