Default coilovers for mazda

Hey guys!
First off I just want to say that I did do some research regarding this question, but most threads I find are fairly old and I would like to know if there are newer opinions out. Alrighty, with that said, let me begin.

I am looking to buy miata coilovers, hopefully today, that would be perfect for my application. I have a 1999 with 65k miles that is 80% street/daily, and 20% autocross and maybe a few track days. I would like the best coilovers I can get for under a grand. I found a few that I am interested in, but would like some semiprofessional advice.

Tein Street Flex ~$950
FM V-Maxx XXtreme (Sport, the Track are out of stock till late August) ~$815
BC Racing (BR Series) ~$1000 Stance? ~$950ish

I would LOVE some opinions! Thank you in advance!

I would suggest that you find a shop that will do your alignment after you install the coil overs. You may be surprised to find that many shops because of insurance liabilities will not do the service.

BC coil over have always had a good reputation.
