Default Eibach Pro-kit lowering springs any good?

I'm going to lower my itr after the winter and I'm looking for good springs that will lower about 25mm. I got a deal on a Eibach Pro-kit. Didn't find much by searching on Eibach on the forum...

Any sugestions?
I know all about the spoons, so I don't need to hear more

I've got them. I love them. Closest to stock ride I could find, but closes the wheel well gap nicely.

I have the sportlines with adjustable Koni's. I raised the spring pearches up to keep the 205/50/15's from rubbing when hitting bumps at high speeds, or cornering. I thought about changing to a set of H&R's. I think the have just a little stiffer spring rate. I did have set of the pro kit Eibachs on a 00 Si I sold. They did great on it. Just need a camber kit front and rear to keep the inside of your tires from wearing. I don't think that the pro-kit will give to much of a drop from stock. I think they base the amount of drop off of a LS or GSR.

What size wheels and tires are on your car? Looks pretty much like the drop i am looking for. I want lowering springs for my stock shocks that will give a 1 finger gap and will still provide a stock like ride. Does anybody else have pics of their r with eibachs on stock shocks? or with h&r springs?
