Default Coilover advice - for aesthetics only

Hello,

I was hoping to buy some coilovers for my Impreza, it's just a 2.0 sport, with a few aesthetic modifications.

Only reason I wanted the coilovers where to have the back end raised a little, and the front lowered a little, again purely for aesthetics.

Would this be okay interrms of the 4 wheel drive system? My mechanicals knowledge is zero am afraid.

would anybody recommend any coilovers on a budget? Don't have to perform great, as not for speed/racing at all, I have read a lot end up making the ride really hard, but was wondering is just when there really low as not much space to travel?

Tein basics are probably the cheapest and they work ok , as long as you don't go mad on the settings i'm sure it will be fine

Thank you, will look into the Tene Basics. Really once set, I don't think would need to ever adjust again. Many thanks

ST suspensions (TUV certified), BC, Meister R are your best bets I think.

Also Tein basics, but i'd recommend the above over Tein basics on uk roads.
