you don't need to put in your smart ass comments along with your "help" .
it's as simple as not typing anything in the quick reply box if you're just going to be rude.
First of all, posting something like this isn't going to get you a good answer especially since you've already been given suggestions. Take the answers from this thread and do some research on your own. Personally, I think you should just get racelands. Take all the money you save from buying these "crap" coils and invest it in other things. As for quality of racelands, I've put 10k on mine with no problems but I don't do anything but daily drive my car.
And when I leave, come together like butt cheeks...
Racelands and XXRs=Built car.
If you want quality and lowness, go for the FortuneAutos that rspeed sells. Height adjustment is independent of pre load and they're completely rebuildable. They're probably a little more that what you're looking for, but with a soft setup you'll get a better than stock ride and as much lowness as you'll desire.
Rspeed.com sells them.
Get some Tein Flex and then buy my old tophats.

remember, if your going LOW your going to need fender modding and such with wider wheels.
Blood, Sweat, and IRON.
you can get quite low if you just buy tein flex or basics and take out the bottom collar.
also, stance coilovers get you low from what i hear.
my hks coils dont get me as low as my tiens did, but still fairly low.
Das miata -
There are numerous manufacturers of good coilovers for the NB platform. Getting low is going to to depend on your budget and preferred style. Out in CA, I see most lowered cars on Teins, Stance or Megan. PM Urban, he had the market cornered on getting an NB low before most others. He should be able to help you out.
these guys are giving you shit cause they ran out of advice . they max/d out they're information pool. i guess they like racelands.
but they got one thing right, you have to search for info . hopefully these last couple post will help you.
KFJ gave some good options. the usual are Tein Flex,Stance , or BC.
your looking for a short shock length , which the stance have. the Flex need collars removed, the BC actually have a "get low " package , which includes shorter springs.
your also looking for recessed top mounts. this will salvage some ride quality.
most importantly , they Need to have lower cups , for separate ride height , and preload adjustment. this is standard on most coilovers.
if you really want to ball. get whatever coilover you choose and some Swift springs .
the most common problem with these coils are the springs , they have to many coils , and the coils bind at full compression , reducing shock stroke.
swift will help maintain ride quality, as well as the deep top mounts.

The Law. It has been laid down.
Haters gon hate lol
Thank you! I agree, let's Keep the smart ass comments out. If people want to get rude/nasty we can show them the door pretty easy.
Tein is probably the best bet, one of the guys in my local club has the Tein basic coilovers and it was lower than my Tanabe Coilovers (even with mine on the lowest setting!)
I like the idea Urban has with using a different set of springs!! Im might have to try that next time I'm in the market for Coilovers.
Racelands,
Because 400$ for full suspension and 2 yr warranty is the price of four shocks alone......
what have you got to lose?
Stance GR + Swift springs is perfect from what I've heard.
