I have stance super sport+ with helper springs all the way around. i run them at their 0 setting which is full stiff then back 8 clocks. Rides like stock and keeps my large front bumper off the ground. BC's would be a downgrade, stance shocks are dual valved

they keep the shock in a performance position without you needing to stiffen the dampening which extends the shock life...less shock travel. Similar to what a swift spring would do

If you are not going to be tracking the car... I would go 350z S Tech springs w/ shocks of your choice. I

have this set up and love the quality of the ride and also love the drop. Looks good with my stock 19's

Taking a step back regardless unless you want to roll on air. Rides amazing with the right shocks.

only one i have was taken with iPhone... the ride is comfortable yet has the ability to corner very well. Also, it is not bad at all with driveway & or bumps. You do however have to slow down with them haha. But overall, I am very content with the outcome. I recommend it

Buy the extensions for the rear from Stance (they're like $25 or something) and set them full soft, then adjust as needed. I'm not low anymore either and my Stances still ride better than my BCs did. I don't think you're going to find a cheaper solution than that, that will actually do you any good.

If you've got aftermarket sway bars don't forget to go softer on them as well.
