Default eibach sportline springs mate best with which struts?

I just ordered some sportline springs for my 99 gsr and was woundering what struts are most compatible with these springs. I have had my eye on those tokiko illumina 5way adj. which i believe will work with this spring setup. Please post what brand choises I have now with my new springs.

I'm currently running those with tokico illuminas and couldnt be happier...good performance/handling while staying completely streetable and practical for everyday use.

I'd go with some Koni Yellows. The sportlines don't give an even drop height because they're rated at 1.7" front & rear. The wheel well is slightly larger in the front than the rear, resulting in a slightly lower stance in the rear (at least appearance-wise).

The Konis have 5 perch settings that are incremented in 20mm intervals. That way you can adjust the height slightly to make up for the uneven ride height. I currently have the front on the lower perch setting and the rear on the middle setting and the car is perfectly even.

thanks for all the great feedback everyone especially PlastikOwl and daLixz25. The koni yellows if money wasn't a factor would be my #1 pick. However due to being a broke *** tuner im leaning towards the tokico. Anyone know if the tokico are height adjustable like daLixz25 said the koni's were?

If I remember correctly, I think you can adjust the stiffness of the tokicos but not the perch height.
