Default Anyone tried both H&R and Eibach?

I am tossing up between the two myself, with Bilstein Sport. What to know which one gives more compliant ride.

Spring rate on Eibachs less stiff, I reckon.

Bilsteins + H&Rs. So far, so good.

Default H&R Sport / Bilsteins

Glad I went with a non-coilover solution. Less of a chance for me to get myself in trouble screwin' around with the geometry. Responsiveness has been increased by an order of magnitude. I'm hitting my apexes more cleanly, but it's a rock hard street ride. :-)

This spring/shock combination lowers the car by 1.25 inches, so plan on getting yourself a long handled scrub brush to wash your wheel wells.
