Default Koni coil-over vs H&R coil overs

i have posted this question here before for the night crowd, just wondering your guys opinions. I have a 2000 1.8tq. i know that H&R is the best suspension, but is there really a big difference between the two? I am a daily driver looking for better street performance without sacrificing to much of the comfortable ride. would like to lower the car about 2-3 inches. i do understand that with lower suspension you will feel the road more. i am a college student on a tight dudget so obviously the Koni's are more affordable. i have never driven a tuned car before, my previous and first car was a jeep grand cherokee. im not sure if it makes any difference but i have about 200+ pounds of stereo equiptment in the trunk (car audio is my thing).

thanks in advance for any advice.

Default Go with the Konis, save some money.

If you want a better steet set up, either is a fine choice, so you might as well get the less expensive set up.

Default Ditto

If you're looking for a nice upgrade with good results on the street, I'd suggest the Koni's.

They're a great kit at a very competitive price.

Email if you have any questions.
