Good morning all!

In the market for some coils, I'm just curious of how much did you guys pay for your coils and what brand. Recommendations would be great.

Yes

i got mine used in perfect condition with less than 10,000 miles. tein comfort sport. paid $900. if you buy them new, they're around $2,000. personally, i think they're the only way to go.

Best coilover imho, best drop without limiting dampening. I had the Teins CS dropped to the max and it would bottom out all the time.

I bought a used set of Tein CS v.1 with 15,000 miles on them for $700.
The set I bought was meant for a GS but it bolts up perfectly to the SC.

Brand new TEIN CST (late '08) @ $1,650'ish and I thought I got a good deal...

Actually that is a good deal. It's probably as good as it gets for brand new sets too.

98-05 Lexus GS coilovers will fit on our 02-04 SC's,

Now their spring rates will be a little off, compared to coilovers that are meant for the SC.

I've heard that the 05+ SC's had their rear springs redesigned so I cannot confirm fitment on those.

But if I were to take a guess, I would think that it would also fit the 05+. Lexus might have tweaked the springs but I doubt they would have redesigned the whole shock assembly.
