But getting a set of non-adjustable shocks left me quickly wishing I had spent the extra money or waited for a decent used set with height/rebound adjustment.

I haven't touched the rebound and compression setting on my double adjustable TCK for almost two years... i just leave them in the track setting. If I were to do this again, I probably spend the money on a single adjustable MCS or JRZ instead. Amateurs like us won't benefit much from the adjustability IMHO.
I also had BMW PS for over a year. They were great for the money IMO. They just rid a bit harsh (too much high speed damping???) in first 100 miles or so for whatever reason.
I would recommend against the Ohlins Road and Track kit (not the real Ohlins kits with TTX shocks) for our cars. Their spring rates are all wrong for these cars. Plus their shock rusts if you DD them... Get a kit with stainless steel shock body instead if you gonna drop the money on a nice set of coilovers. You don't want you spring collar seized against the shock body.
