the budget coilover of choice for the ls4 tends to be megan racing.

yes, megans are a popular choice for coils, Tein CS is more expensive, rides softer, but doesnt go as low. the BC Racing would be my next choice as long as you get a good set since they are rumored to go lower than the Megans.

wouldnt touch the JIC FLT-A2s, too many friends with reliability issues and crap-poor support from JIC USA.
