Hence, i'm looking for a less wobbly street suspension that can take the occasional pot-hole. What I have now (completely stock) doesn't deal with pot-holes well (even after changing run-flats to PSS) and takes a bit too much time to "settle" into a hard turn... That's all i'm looking to address.
Thanks again for the great posts!

You're all over the place...
Why are you looking at coilovers now?
You aren't tracking, and you aren't looking to lower. A set of struts/shocks and may be a mild spring if any is what you're looking for.
You certainly don't want $3k coilovers. Although they're revalved, they use Koni twin tubes (one of the shocks you should be considering).
