H&R Sport vs. Eibach Pro's

what would be the better buy. some of the things I've heard between the 2 are:

H&R lowers a tad bit more
Eibachs are 20% more stiffer that the H&R Springs
Eibach Pro Springs work really well with stock shocks (does that go for all vehicles?)
and some other crap. :frog:

I just want to put on a set of lowering springs you know. not looking to change my shocks as well. should I go with the Eibachs?

any comments are appreciated

Get the Eibachs. If the H&R will lower more and have a lower rate, you will spend entirely too much time hitting the bumpstops. That produces a crappy ride and can screw up the handling if you hit them while cornering.

I guess that depends upon how you define "work really well."

The drop on my H&R's is 35mm as apposed to the Eibach's
with a 30mm drop, I have no problems with hitting the bump
stops & the car drives nice
Apparantly H&R were started by 2 people that used to work at Eibach !

From seeing first hand differences between H&R and the Eibachs...

get the Eibachs!



...and you're right, somehow Eibach manages to put out springs that seem to work pretty good w/ stock struts.

The H&R's are bouncy on the bumps
