megans are one of the cheapest and are pretty quality but depends on what you think good is, have you hd coilovers before , how do you want your car to ride?

well if price doesnt matter then id buy jic, silk road, or cusco. Megans and stance are budget coilovers but arent bad either. Generally you would want a higher spring rate for drifting but its not necessary, which is where dampening helps out.

Higher spring rate doesn't mean easier to drift.

Budget coils? Megans Street @ 8/6k.

but if you want REAL coils, gotta spend more. I have JIC and I'm loving it, I've also tested TEIN Super Drifts, and those feels good too.

ya search

and do what i do.

Spend a **** load of money and different coilovers.

Also ride in cars that have different setups till you see what is best for you.

I did that until suspension compaines made coilovers to my spec. I got lucky.

Just research.
