not an authority or anything but many spring/shock combos have the same if not very similar ride to
certain coilovers. When u start getting into custom spring rates and adjustable shock dampening then u get into entirely different rides for diff. purposes. i.e track, autocross, drag etc.

Depends..
For the average street driver, springs and shocks are more than sufficient. If you're performing on the track regularly, or seek a desired ride height then coilovers might be a better option.
The new Vogtland S4 Club springs offer a great ride height, and very good street confort. Definitely an option to consider.

I'm facing the same question. When I did my research a while ago, I found that
typically the big difference is in the height adjustability, but the spring rates and damping on the C/os are generally higher too. So in truth they do make a better suspension. Plus what sold me on them is that the damper is matched to the spring (cause they come together of course). Of course, I may still go with a combo pack...
