I am considering a spring swap, eiter Eibach pro-kit or H&R sport springs. All of you that have lowered your car, did you also get shocks or just the springs? Just wanted to know what kind of ride you get with just swaping the springs out. What are they charging these days to get springs installed? Thx

1)H&R Sports with Koni Sport.
2) do em both and you'll be good as gold. Cheaper too.
3) My ride is factory smooth, turning is crisp, body roll is minor(sways need updating) I dont scrap on anything!
4) As far as pricing 500 should be the very max to install and align

i have the H&R sports with the stock sport shocks. The ride is like stock so no complaints except maybe I should have gone lower in the front with the Eibach sportline.

just get coilovers if you plan to swap springs and shocks. plus coilovers are adjustable!

I was leaning towards the H&Rs and a set of bilsteins, but it seems like most of the people on this site just went with the springs. I just wanted to know how the ride felt with the springs only and with stock shocks.
