adjustable dampening? it really depends on wether or not you get "coilover" (sleeves) or springs.

for isntance, H&R oe/sports springs will work fine on non adjustable struts like Koni red's. their spring rated arent too agressive anyways, you wont get the world out of those springs. but for higher spring rates liek the skunk 2's or H&R race (which has a rediculous drop) then adjustables would be well worth it if you tune it right. if the dampening is too stiff, you will get a bouncy car.

i love my H&R's, i havent had good luck with eiback, they sagged and rode very harsh. didnt feel progressive at all (As they claim).
