Default good deal on ST coilovers?

Does anyone know where I can get a good deal on ST coilovers. I read somewhere that they are about 7-800 bucks. But the cheapest I've found is 1000.

I got ksports and they are pretty rough to be honest. I'm not sure how they compare to KW but I wish I stuck to stock suspension or something more smooth. The car handles nice but the ride is awful sometimes. Perhaps its my tires that I need to replace.

Yes, tires play an important role here too.

Yeah I had some tears in my rears because of camber so I replaced the rears with super pilots. I'm probably gonna replace the fronts now, and see if that makes a difference. The tires that came with the rims were some cheap generals, so the fronts still have those.
