the eibach pros are good... what shocks are you looking to run?

also look at the Neuspeed "Sport" springs, and the H&R "Sport" springs
they are both pretty similar to the eibachs

these all match well with KYB AGX shocks

i dont know what shocks thats part of what i was looking for on here? so if i had to buy springs and shocks would it be cheaper to buy a coilover set?

nNo, a good set of coilovers will be a few hundred more expensive than a good shock/spring combo. On my old setup I ran the Eibach Pro-kit springs with Eibach struts. It rode awesome, dramatically tightened up the handling, and I never bottomed out on anything because it's only a 1.2" drop.
