Default Koni Sport Kit vs. Eibach Sport Kit

I wanted to buy either the koni sport kit or the eibach sport kit, and i was wondering if anyone had any input on which one has the better springs. i have a RSXtypeS 2002. i know the eibach only comes with the springs but in that case i would simply buy some regular koni sport shocks to complete it but was mostly wondering on how good the Koni springs are??? help me out please! thank you for any input on the topic

I think one of the best setups out there, even better than most coilovers, is Tein S-Tech springs with Koni Yellows.

Perfect drop for performance and a daily driven ride height and the shocks compliment them well.

Hello htown hustle: If your main objective is looks (dropped look), or just hang out at parking lots, the Tein-H or Tein-S TECH line is your choice. If you want performance, then Eibach Pro Kits feature high performance handling, outstanding ride quality, a progressive-rate spring design, and a manufacturers million-mile warranty. An Eibach Pro Kit is perfect for frequent streetcar driving. Additionally, Eibach Springs are the #1 choice for all race teams, including Formula 1 Racing, World Rally Championship, and others. If you want the best in durability, each spring is tested and rated individually for peak efficiency. Hope this helps...

You're welcome... Regarding your Honda-Tech status, I am not sure when it changes; but a moderator, like Type-X, will be able to assist you.

Koni Sport Kit vs. Eibach Sport Kit
The street price on the Koni kit is slightly higher but the dampers are generally thought to be superior and adjustable.
