Default which suspension option?

I was planning on installing Tokico Illuminas with H&R SS springs on my 89 Saleen. Then I started to realize that I had an opportunity to address the uneven tire to fender gap issue that so many of us have with our fox bodies in the rear. The two options that I seem to have settled down to are these.

It seems like the 1st option gives you the adjustability of the Tokicoson top ofthe adjustability of the LCAs to fix any ride height unevenness. It also costs about $500 less. Option 2 gives you ultimate adjustability on ride height, but I am not sure about ride harshness. Wouldn't the ride get softer as you lowered the ride height (opposite of what you would want)? I am new to coilovers.

Any recommendations on brands to use or stay away from would be appreciated also.

What do you guys think. This is not a track car, although I want it to handle well in curves. Ride quality is very important to me also.Thanks.
