Regular vs. Adjustible shocks?

I am looking for spring and shocks combos and I am undecided between the Tokico sets. This is my daily driven car. Is it worth the price difference? My choices are:
A) set of 4 ( 2 HB3140 front STRUTS , and 2 HE3723 rear ) TOKICO HP BLUE STRUTS/SHOCKS and 4( 2 front , 2 rear ) High performance Tokico lowering springs, with a 1.25 inch drop
PRICE $395 shipped
B) set of 4 ( 2 front BB3140 STRUTS and 2 rear BE3723 ) TOKICO ILLUMINA 5 WAY EXTERNALLY ADJUSTABLE struts / shocks and 4 High Performance Lowering springs with a 1.25 inch drop
PRICE $560 shipped

I dunno, I think they are both too expensive. Seems like having shocks that adjust so many ways would just mean that I would be screwing with the shock's settings all the time. I prefer zero way adjustable shocks

I was thinking about that kit and I was a bit confussed. That kit comes with FRPP "C" Springs and some websites say it will lower your car by .75". But if you look up the "C" springs alone they say 1.2 inches front, 1 inch rear. What is the truth. I think .75" would be a little weak.

According to the webpage:
Lowers 1994-98 vehicles 1'' and 1999-03 vehicles .75''

I think .75 is ok. There is only 5" clearance at the lowest spot on the stock setup. Most roadkill and speedbumps are taller than that...

Most people don't need adjustables. you said it's your daily driver, but what are your plans from the car and what do you want from it?
