An advantage of coilovers (in some situations) is the greater range of camber adjustment they allow simply because they're so much narrower than your typical McPherson strut. I can get 5 degrees of adjustment out of my current coilover setup, but I doubt I would have got even one degree with the original springs!

But yeah, that just agrees with the above - the only advantage coilovers will give you is greater adjustability. Think carefully about how often you'd really want to adjust your suspension, and let that guide your decision. If you're like 99% of people you'll realise it's completely unnecessary. Good dampers and custom-wound springs will do exactly the same job for a much lower price!
