trust me, go with the sportlines. The pro-kit probably rides a little better then the sportlines cus they r softer but they still leave a decent sized gap. Im talking like almost two inches from the top of the tire to the fender. It looks good but i def want to make it lower.

Definatly get the Sportlines. I rode on some for a year with stock struts and they were great, and they took out alot of the wheel gap on my 17's. Get them you wont be disappointed.

Me. Me.

I dont have pics. But, There is a finger gap. If you dont want your car lowered a lot, the pro-kit is the one to get. Try looking in the suspension thread here:

The Prokit is 10-15% stiffer and the Sportlines are 20-25% stiffer over stock. This is what the Eibach tech told me when I called them. So expect it to be stiffer and rougher over the bumpy stuff. When your just cruising on a smooth surface they feel like stock. Since theyre progressive, they'll stiffen up the more you compress them. Also your going to be a bit more bouncy now which you'll notice more at night when the headlights reflect off of things. Konis or Tokicos will help this.

Another thing that makes a big difference in comfort is tire choice. Before I had some Z rated tires then switched to some H rated(Kumho 711's) ones. The H rated were much better in the comfort area since the sidewall is softer.
