Coilovers or Sti wagon Springs and struts?
Okay y'all sorry a long one so bear with me,
Ive searched this one to death. I'm waiting for my tax return and have decided to spend it on suspension. I have an '04 wagon with Sti wheels and tires. I dont have any real plans to track my car, but have not ruled it out. Also, I live in Hawaii and the shipping is rediculous. I was thinking about getting the Sti wagon suspension, but have found that if you factor in shipping, coilovers might be cheaper, or right around the same price.
Also, I may be moving to Washington (new job more money) and plan on taking the car in the snow, so the height adjustment may be handy. I know that some coilovers have issues with the snow. I want the car to handle like a champ and am leaning towards the coilovers also to get rid of some of the wheel gap. Just wanted to get opinions.
Thanks, sorry for the long question.

I bought Mach5's Flex's that he had on his WRX sedan and installed them on my wagon. No issues. They've been on for over 5k miles.
