i am about to order a new set of springs myself and was told these ahve apretty smooth ride but that was from the sales guy. i dont htink he has had much experience with our cars soo to me his opinion doesnt really matter. right now i have progress springs. i am happy with the over all ride but my stock shocks are junk and the springs are sagging i thik. so im going to replace them i was told either the h&r springs or the tein s tech. i was thinking the eibach's would be best but i am just stuck on eibach because i have used them many times and the ride is always great

are you planning to use them for the sedan? if so, they will most likely sag in the rear.

i have them with koni yellows and really like the handling characteristics. i don't think i would put them on with stock struts though...see my pics in members rides if you want to see how the drop is...mine is a coupe however.

They are great on a coupe and sucky on a sedan. I have them in both cars. My sedan sags with an empty trunk. The coupe is fine with a sub and box in the trunk. I'm consodering making spacers for the back.

i have them, they felt good for the first few months, but after that they felt hard (on stock shocks). i would not recommend getting s techs if you are staying with stock shocks and you always have a full car. i hate driving with more than 2 passengers. but i'm upgrading to TEIN SS-Ps soon so i'm happy.
