Eibachs do not sag. They have a million mile warranty. Out of all the springs listed, Eibach is the only one that actually makes their own springs. There is a reason why Eibach is on EVERY Nascar and WRC Car.

Eibach ERS Springs = Choose a spring-rate/length to suite you.

well,the prokit is only a 1.2 inch drop,im really looking for closer to 1.5 or 1.8,the h&r's are 1.5 and the sportline kits from eibach are 1.8.

how do the eibach sportlines ride?

eibachs are the **** period.

as far as youre queston, personally i would go with a set of sleved coil over like ground control. You can set youre height to any thing from 0-4, and they handle decent with normal spring rates and they ride great escpescailly if you only drop the **** 2 inchs

there s a shitload of sprinds out there..my choice are the JDM Eibach s, the Tein s

just depend s alot on the drop u want too..the sportlines will get u down about 1.8"..but there s springs out their that ll get u lower but still give u a decent ride

check out the http://www.modacar.com site ..good selection of springs..prices are decent too
