Just curious, why do you want oilcovers for daily driving?

Edit: as opposed to just some springs?

Your money is probably better spent on a set of swaybars than a set of cheap springs on stock shocks

Stance, megan, helix, etc are all the same taiwanese coilovers from Bor Chuann just in different colors with someone elses name on them. Hell they got so sick of other people selling them under different names they now just sell them under their factory name "BC", so yea you might as well just get whichever one you find the cheapest if you want to go that route

Cheap coilovers aren't worth either the money they cost or the time they take to install.
