if you are not worry about the money go with full adjustable coilovers. you can adjust the height to however you like

Living in Colorado, I'd definitely suggest the coilovers; that way you can raise the car up in the winter and slam it again in the summer. Nothing they put on the roads should really do any real damage to the coilovers; I'd just make sure to clean the threads good a few times a year.
