Coilovers benefit or not?

There is no logic to dropping that much money for 12" of travel. They shoe horned a setup into the JK. Do it right or don't do it. Ask me about it. I went from lift to lift. $250 budget boost to $4k Gamechanger. A $2k kit is max performance until you get into serious fab. Is what it is. Your money.
You can probably get a Wayalife sticker for free, without buying anything.

I know three people with the EVO bolt-on setup. They all regretted it. Two ditched it all together and went to weld-on brackets and the other is swapping this winter.

I've been eyeing the double throwdown from evo for some time now. I spend most of my time in sand dunes and the whoops just kill me. I'd love to be able to cruise the dunes above crawling speed and the DTD claims to fit the bill. What are your opinions on this? Would it just be better to go with a long arm upgrade or a 4 link instead of worrying about coilovers? I guess I don't have the experience to know one way or another what is truly needed for higher speeds off road.

The towers are from TMR Customs and were the tallest I could find. In hindsight, I wish I had made my own hoops, but that is just for my personal preference.

I was thinking of either going with their bolt on set up, or spending $2500 (Keeping my coils) and going with the Fox Internal Bypass 2.5. My wheels/Tires are so heavy, for street driving alone I need a better shock for control (I wheel 1-2 times a month). What say you sir?

Don't take this the wrong way, but if you don't know what they are why do you even want them?
