Default H&R race springs paired with Eibach pro damper?

So I have in my room a set of unused Eibach prokit Springs as well as a set of bnib Eibach prodampers. I'm thinking I wanna go lower so I was contemplating selling my Eibach prokit Springs and buying h&r race springs.

Question: will the Eibach pro dampers pair well with the h&r race springs? Please consider and include wear and degradation rates of dampers in discussion.

How low do you want to go? Might as well sell the eibach stuff and get some garbage f&f, raceland, or stance "suspension".

Well if I'm considering h&r race springs I probably want to go as low as that. I figured most of us knew they drop around 2.5".

Are you saying that the Eibach stuff is garbage so I should sell it? Or are you saying I want to go too low so I should buy the garbage that will allow it?

You'll have to be a little more clear with me.

Most off-the-shelf stuff will work well unless the spring rates are far to stiff. Eibach suspension is pretty good stuff. Honestly if you wanted the adjustability why not just get the ground control sleeves and springs(made by eibach) instead?

I'm not saying h&r makes bad products, just saying there are better options.

Ok. Well I do want to go a little lower than the prokit offers I think. So maybe I'll sell the prokit and go with the sportlines. They should definitely work well together since Eibach does sell the a kit with the sportlines and prodampers.

Thanks for your input. Anyone else feel free to chime in. I like the comfort of many opinions.

Edit: I don't care for adjustability. I just want a good drop, not slammed, that will work well with the Eibach shocks and wasn't sure if the h&r Springs were too low and firm. Once I'm lowered I don't wanna mess with I again. It's just a DD not a track car.
