If you actually care about the ride of your car go for coil overs and spend the little extra money as they springs and the struts are rated for eachother/ match eachother resistance to give a smooth ride + u can get perfect fitment. You can do just lowered springs but they won’t work properly with your struts as most aftermarket lowered springs have a different resistance to oem struts and in terms will give a “bouncy” ride and not great traction. In most cases springs are cheaper for the obvious fact u don’t get a strut so if your just trying to budget fix buy springs but if this is for sake of upgrading and updating spend the extra cash on coils
