who to shop for coilovers?

Who and where should I shop for coilovers?

I've got some dropzone sleeves and springs on my KYB AGX shocks and I'm getting sick and tired of them, lol.

I'm looking for either a good set of "not so expensive" (Probably an oxymoron) coilovers or a better set of sleeve-over setup (K2RD or Ground Control I believe).

Who and where should I shop?

BTW: If you have a set of coilovers you're selling, feel free to PM me an offer with pics.

Coilovers?

Cheap (new):
Tein (low end ones)
Stance
D2
etc.

Mid Range:
Tein
JIC
Cusco
HKS
etc.

High end:
Tein
JIC
Cusco
HKS
Zeal
etc.

Every brand has entry level coilovers to high end coilovers, just shop around with some of the 'common' ones. (I have JIC's and love them)

stance is more like mid level range coilover, but price of an entry or around. Best Bang for buck coilovers.
