rebuild stance coilovers or buy new coilovers

I have an 03 evo on a set of Stance GR+ coilovers that needs all 4 struts replaced which is going to cost about $680 after shipping. The coils have unknown miles on them as they were on the car when I bought it. I was looking at getting Megan Track coilovers as they have got good reviews and can get them for $875 shipped. So the debate is it worth puttin the money into the Stance coils or just to get all new coils for $200 more

Should read and read and read on what works on the Evo.

You're only doing a lateral move from one to other there. No better. Waste of money in my book.

I am in Cleveland a lot. Roads suck. Over salt them in the winter. You money, but coil overs are not what I'd use (I store my summer car which is fitted with coil overs for AX).

I would like to buy new instead of getting used, just wondering if the Stance are alot better of a coil that something a little cheaper like the megan racing coils. I just dont want to put so much money into rebuilding them if its not worth it, ill just buy new coils and sell the Stance coils as is

Cheaper should be wiped from this conversation. Why do you want a cheap suspension? Do it right. Megan/Stance/FA are cheap suspensions. You pay for what you get here.
