Default Eibach Pro-kit or H&R Sports?

Which one of these two springs is overall better (in terms of drop, handling, ride, etc.)? And I want a good non-adjustable shock with my new springs. Is the Bilstein HD a good choice? Thanks for the replies.

I had the H&R Race springs on my NeonR/T and I loved them, not for the luxurious driver, more for the aggressive driver, Ride is very good, well developed springs. Eibach sucks in my opinion, had a set of pros, and they rubbed really bad.

Rubbing is usually because of wrong wheel offset or width or wrong tire size.

I have found the h&r sports give a nicer looking drop...

Bilsteins are incredible...for the nonadjustable shocks they are the way to go.

I have the Sports with Bilstein. I think this is the perfect combination actually. The drop is perfect; not too low. I can still go over speedbumps without scraping. Ride comfort is a little stiffer than stock. The shocks work well to damper any bumps too. You will feel your vehicle jump up after hitting a bump in the road, but once it comes back down, it stays down, no bounce or boat action. After the the shocks got broken it, the ride has become even more softer. I have yet to bottom out on these. Overall I am happy with this set up. I got the shocks for $365 btw, let me know if you can't find them for cheaper. I don't have any other springs to compare to, but I know that the spring rate is lower than most of the springs out there. This usually means softer ride.

Would H&R Sports springs with AGX's in the rear and GR2's in the front be a good set-up?

I have H&R sports. I like them. Perfect amount of drop. I can't tell any difference in the ride either. Same as stock.

H&R's get my vote. Alta sports in Portland, Oregon has them for $140.
