I have spent way too much time researching here and elsewhere on the great H&R Sport vs. Eibach Prokit debate. I think in general most people like what they have, but if you had it to do over would you make the same choice or do something different?
I have decided to change the shocks to Koni Sport adjustables, now I just need to decide which springs to put with them.

I pulled the trigger on H&R Sport and Koni yellow from Shox.com. Best price I could find for the full set.
There had been some H&R coil overs for a 6 cyl on ebay for $700 and looking back I wish I had bought them. Oh well, I'm looking forward the this set up for now.
Going with 166's and Generals for wheels/tires. I just talked to the tint shop and they will have ceramic tint starting on the 17th (an Audi S6 is scheduled then) and I'll be later that week. Now I just have to save up a little for an exhaust.
Ready for spring/summer driving! Thanks for all your input and support as I have planned the mods so far!

I run Eibachs on mine and they are an absolute perfect ride. Nevertheless, they are too conservative with the drop and therefore, next time I will use H&R. Might even change them soon.
The fronts sit perfect, but on the rears it looked like it didn't give any lowering over my m-tec suspension. ( i know it's less, but it didn't look like any)

just got the H&R sports installed from D2 in Alhambra for $400 installed ( ask for Collins). The ride is no different than stock sport and the handling is significantly better.
