At first I thought the Eibach/Koni combination was wayyyy too stiff & considered having the OEM springs reinstalled.
This was due primarily to my being so impressed with what I considered a perfect compromise between ride comfort & handling prowess exhibited by the OEM spring rates & strut valving.

Then I got used to it after a while & now I don't mind the stiffer ride at all. It's just the lower ride height is a bit of a nuisance because of speed bumps & driveway entrances/exits.

Since my OEM springs & struts only have about 800 miles on them, they are essentially brand new so if I ever want to convert back I can with no appreciable deterioration due to wear.

Thats too many questions! Lock this damn thread now! laugh

I have Eibachs wish I had H&R raked stance look better IMHO, H&R is porggres throughout, front and rear working Eibachs rear are linear, one set rate.

Bonus side is Eibachs are said to be designed to work with stock strut, which mine have done pretty god job of. If I did it over H&R for looks.

Both are about the same.

I have a 98 Stique, and im in the process of getting the side skirts and rear bumper from the svt. This will moke the front bumper look a bit higher. So what would you reccomend to either even it out, or make it look cool?
