coilovers vs. lowering springs

[Tom_90]

so I want to convert my car from 4x4 mode, and obviously coilovers have benefits over lowering springs, but is it worth spending the extra £250-300 on coilovers? Bearing in mind mines a 1.2 and will never be tracked, its only for looks.

Coilovers are mostly for handling so unless that's your main priority probably not worth the extra
