Coilovers recomendation

Sorry for this cross thread,
I would like to know what is the best coilovers available for my 09 JCW. I want something that would be an everyday driver, but at the same time, 4-6 times of the year would be able to use it at the track, lower and harder.

Please let me know from the best to least and best for the price as well. I have already got 25mm sway bar, end links on the car.

There are a lot of options out there....some great, some crappy.

KW is a popular track option, AST for a little more money, JRZ for even more, etc. Bilstein and Ohlins are great for a nice mix of street and track. The new Eibach Multi Pro R2 look interesting too. Good dyno plots and great price for a 2 way damper.

In my own experience the Japanese and Chinese coilovers are lacking in the valving and travel department, so you'll see their shortcomings on less than smooth roads and tracks.
