Tein-S or Eibach PICS

I'm in the progress of choosing springs to lower my car, Tein-s, Sportlines or pro kit. I'm looking for almost stock quality or so, and about 1.5 drop after they settle. Please post a picture with similar setup. I have a HFP rims and 205/55/16 tires.

Re: Tein-S or Eibach PICS

search will help out more.. but here's the prokit on 17's w/ thin @ss tires (40's)... I've been happy with the drop, you can tell it's lowered, ride is slightly more bumpy, and I hardly ever scrape

Re: Tein-S or Eibach PICS

eibach prokit, about 2 finger gap all around, on tokico blue shocks. stock size rims and tires too. its not slammed, but its not stock either and a good compromise. ride quality is good and not as mushy/bouncy as stock suspension. no sag in the rear! with stock shocks there was huge sagging.
