If this is for an EP82, the MeisterR Zeta-R are bespoke made for the chassis.
It will provide the right amount of height adjustment and damping adjustment for fast road use so it won't be harsh for daily driving.
They are also on offer at £549 delivered, you can check the trader section. :)

The offer will be on still, shouldn't be a problem. :)
As for how well they will do on track, they should be perfectly fine unless you are going for very hardcore tyres.
There are plenty of damping adjustments to help limit the body roll for track use.
The damper are specifically made to be compression and rebound combined adjustable as this have a favorable effect when adjusting the damping.
The increase in compression will help "push" the tyres onto the ground, and the increase in rebound will help slow down the weight transfer and limit the body roll.
Using hard damping will be favorable on tracks, but it will make the car very harsh on uneven roads.
That is why the range of the damping have specified to provide soft enough adjustment for the uneven roads and hard enough adjustments for the flat track surfaces.
We actually find having a slightly softer suspension will give better overall grip on track with road tyres as you won't load up the tyres too quickly and therefore understeers...
