2012 Acura TL 3.5 FWD Suspension Upgrade Questions

Hey all,

I'm a Acura TL Owner(its my first one)
and Over the past year ive gotten slightly annoyed with how bumpy my average commute is. Maybe my shocks are wearing down.
But basically, I'm wondering if I can install some coilovers without lowering the car too much(it already scrapes up the driveway occasionally)
Or what else I can look for in making my ride smoother. I'm looking to keep this car running for a long time, because i really do love it.
I plan on getting new wheels and tires (standard stock sizes) very soon here. I've replaced stocks and struts on an old mazda of mine, but thats the only suspension experience I have, so I'm kinda of clueless.

Any info would help.

Thanks

yes, you can install coilovers and still retain a decent height.

Koni yellows work with the stock springs. They should ride better than stock if you set them toward the "soft" setting.

And you can retain your stock ride height.
