I have been searching around for springs but I hadn't heard of B&G before. Do they require that aftermarket struts be used? I was leaning toward Eibach until I heard they make the rear sit low. Eibachs do allow the use of OE struts though.

You can use stock struts with any aftermarket spring. It's just not recommended. The lower you go the quicker they're gonna wear out, so yes eibachs won't wear the stock struts out as quick as B&Gs, but they still will make them wear out significantly sooner than stock springs. Do it right the first time and get Bilsteins or Konis. I'm running Roush springs (probably least amount of drop of any aftermarket spring) on SVT struts, and I can feel I should have used Konis or Bilsteins.
