Default Coilovers vs. Springs/Shocks.....?

I want to lower my A4. I see two options: coilovers or the H&R/Bilstein package. Coilovers seem expensive, but they also lower the car more and are adjustable. Which is better, considering price, performance, and looks? Thanks.

Default Think about what you want them for...

if just for a drop, go with springs/shocks...

if you want them for tracking/auto-xing you'll probably want c/o's due to the fact that you can tune them for tracking...
