Default Which coilovers are best for daily driving comfort

I have made the decision to upgrade to coil-overs and I would love a little advice from those who know what they are talking about.

Right now you can find the following 3 coil-over sets for about the same price:

H&R 29092-1
Vogtland 968114
KW V1

Any suggestions about which of these would be most comfortable for daily driving. I am looking for the lowered look with as soft a setting as possible. I have H&R Sport Springs now (on stock shocks) and the ride is a bit to harsh and bouncy on my 19"s.

Thanks

I hear good things about the KW V1's. I'm installing some Bilstein PSS10's this week and I'll be able to give those a review shortly.

You might want to look into KW V2 or V3, since they have wider adjustment and can be set softer. See chart, below.

Also this is a thread dicussing options;

I think I am going to go with the new KW Street Comfort. The KW site shows they are now available for the B8. I can't find them for sale anywhere yet...
