I don't know what "led down lighters" means.
Review both threads in my sig below. That should give you a good idea of what works.

How tall is the ceiling?

We call them 'cans' here in the US, I've been happy using the generic retrofit 6" units with my 7ft basement ceiling.

Yeah, it is a good idea and allow you get the most uniform lighting distribution. LED lights is the right choice, that will save you money om the long run.
