Default eiBach prokit on 6g accord

Today i actually went to some local auto place, they give me a price for eibach pro kit for accord 02'coupe for $240 with installation. aliment extra 30 bucks.
1)i heard that the prokit and sportline can be fitted for accord 02', is it?
2)is prokit better that sportline? prokit offer 1.5 drop and 2.0 for sportline.
3)anyone experienced rubbing or bouncy ride on prokit?
4)can anyone can post me a pic for accord coupe lowered with prokit?
since someone those me eibach's spring always got the problem where the
rear is lower than the front, i know it's more like a eye and mind thing but i really want to see it myself.
5)any problem on 1.5inch drop with negitive cumber?tire wear out fast?
i have a set of 17x7 with kumho tires(just for the info.)
yeah, is kinda newbie Q's but just want some experienced advices before
handing out my hard-earn money
BTW honda-tech ppl just rock, no bs!

Yo f22turbo, i forgot to ask, how much did you pay for getting your f22 turbo charged? like a total, with the new manifold and all needed to run turbo properly.. I need to know how much to save that is, after i rebuild my f22a6 with aftermarket products.. thanks.

probably should have really answered the Qs in my first post. Just dropped mine with prokits and konis about a month ago.

prokit and sportline are teh same as far as quality goes. one isn't better than the other, just different. all personal opinion.

mine never rubs, does not bounce at all. konis set at full stiff. the ride is about the best I've been in for a lowered car. Better than the stock ride in my friends stock 98 Cobra. Better than the ride in my GFs stock 02 spec-V. I put about 700miles a week on my car and ride quality is super important to me, so that was a HUGE factor in my setup decision. I'm happy with it

sorry, no pics yet. gotta stop being lazy and take some. the front isn't higher than the back. the car sits level just looking at it, but there is more fender gap inthe front than the rear, so it kinda looks that way. the car comes with more fender gap up front stock so it's normal. I might end up moving the koni down a perch in the front.

If you are even on the fence about wanting to be lower, get the sportlines. the prokit isnt much of a drop. I mean you can notice it, but if you weren't into cars you might not know.

No problem with camber or anything else. In fact I never got it aligned even. I was going to wait for it to settle, but the car doesn't pull at all, and tire wear is perfect still. so no need for it I guess. I'm going to get new tires in a couple of months, so i'll probably get it aligned then just to be safe. If they will do it for an extra $30 id get it done though. defiantely worth that.

thanks ppl, the picture sure helps. well, see if you can post a picture for konis stuff you talking about, i really want to see your ride in picture. it's good to hear that negative camber doesnt make a big problem on tires life.
