Does anybody know what shocks should be used with the eurosports? I know many people are using the factory sport shocks, but what is the right/ideal shock to use? I don't want to pay someone to tear apart the suspension again in 30,000 miles because the stock shocks blew out!
Thanks!

At first I thought the OEM sport shocks might be too soft but over the last 4000 miles I have decided they are a pretty decent match for these springs.
I think a good alternative is the Bilstein sport shocks which is where I plan to go when the stock shocks damping deteriorates.
By the way, by 30,000 miles I would expect my stock shocks to have worn (whether using the OEM sport springs or the Eurosport) and if I am still picky about the ride I predict I will be replacing them around or before that time.

I had standard shocks which were pretty close to needing replacement anyway.
It worked out- the entire spring-shock-install-alignment was about $900.

I presume you got the Bilstein sport dampers that most use with the H&R or Eibach springs. If possible I would like to call you briefly you talk to you about the ride. This will be my second suspension install...the first one was enormously expensive, and not at all what I was looking for. I don't want to put another suspension in, so your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
