Default Strut/Shock/Coilover question

Well I've thoroughly confused myself again.

Here's what I'm trying to accomplish. I'm looking to do struts/shocks. Down the road I would like to have the option of going to coil-overs, which may effect my choice of struts/shocks now. I know in the front I want adjustable struts. I was planning on the Tokico Dspecs but then I heard of some issues of the eyelet on the struts failing because of the load with coil-overs. Anyone heard of that??

So my next idea was to run the QA1 adjustable struts. I know they are designed to be run with a coilover setup. And since I'm lowered, should I run part #H2002?

Then there's the question of rear shocks.

1) Do I need adjustable rear shocks or would a set of Bilsteins suffice? (90% street beast, 5% drag, 5% track)

2) Is there a coilover setup for the QA1 rear shocks? I know MM makes a coilover conversion for the Bilsteins.
