Coilovers, springs, different brands?

I'm wanting to lower my civic and I think I have decided on adj. coilovers so I can get the exact height I want. I have found the prices ranging from $130 to $350, but is there really that big of a difference? Or would I just need to get some good springs?

i would recommend the full coilover setup that includes the struts. Of course you would then be looking at a minimum of $700 most likely.
