Question Coilovers vs. Springs???

Which one is better, coilovers or springs, and how much does each one cost?

Coilover is better but cost more. Coilovers consist both springs and shocks. The ride height is adjustable, which means that you can control the amount of drop you get. Also the spring rate will match the shock perfectly since they are designed together...

I hope this helps... and I know people will post more details and perhaps correct my mistakes...

i was actually gonna ask the same question too... but actually about the coilover's w/o shocks vs. springs
i heard that the coilovers rust easily with the salt in the winter time (i live in toronto)...
that plus if i get coils, do i need to change the shocks? how about with springs?... do i need a camber kit as well?
