i had eibach sportlines on my 90 accord 4dr....absolutely perfect for what i was lookin for...which was a comfortable ride that gave me great handling whenever i wanted it. i would recommend something a lil stiffer for the autoX'er tho.

sportlines will require you to swap out your stock shocks with aftermarket ones, while the prokit wont. sportlines will give you a greater drop than the prokit. the difference in ride... i can't say since i have never ridden a car with sportlines before, but i have heard good things about them. FatJoe also has a good testimony about sportlines as well.

My friend had sportlines on his Del Sol with stock shocks and i was suprised how the ride was. It wasnt that bouncy at all.

I just put Eibach Sportlines on my '92 2-Door. I also installed KYB AGX and Camber Adjustment kit on all four. The ride is just a little bit stiffer than stock and that is a good thing. The car rides well. Just don't put 215/45R17 tires on it. It is too low to do anything with. I would go with the Proline springs in hindsight. And you should be able to use stock dampers with the prolines although I would not recommend it. You won't need a camber adjustment kit for the prolines either, supposedly!

I think you meant Pro-Kit and not proline.

to the OP:
I had Pro-Kit springs with Tokico struts on my 95 EX. I liked the ride, handled well for a daily driver. Would go with something stiffer if you autox. From what people have said, the main difference between the sportlines and Pro-Kits is the drop. The pro-kit has progressive spring rates and I'm told the sportlines do as well. So if you want Eibach and want more of a drop, then get the sportlines. If you want Eibach and want a mild drop, then get the Pro-Kit.

In all honesty though. This has been covered a lot and you should have tried searching before asking this question. You would have found a lot of personal experiences from people using Eibach spings.
