Not for the same price point, there aren't.

Tein Basis Coilovers are to the RWD Sport Package suspension what the RWD Sport Package is to the non-Sport. It's a good incremental upgrade, and it's height adjustable.

If you have the non-Sport Journey Sedan, with a worn OEM suspension, then Basis will be a Hell-Yeah! upgrade.

I'm no expert, OP. But insofar as forum advice goes, be smarter with your thread titles.

I'll be going with them when the time comes. Great price, Not an overly aggressive drop that keeps the car classy looking while retaining most of the OEM ride quality.

Really depends what you're after, great points by Rochester too.
If you're wanting a firm coilover that you can adjust as needed depending on needs (such as tracking, mountain carving, etc.) then a set w/ adjustable dampers should be on your menu.

If you want a set that will get you exactly the height you want, maintain a softer ride that's closer to OEM, and budget-friendly, the choice stops at the Tein Basis Zs
