Rep Power: 0 coilovers --> give u the chance to adjust the ride height
springs --> no adjust ride height
Eibach Sportline springs --> 2~2.5" lower
Eibach Pro-kit springs--> 1.5~1.8" lower
Koni Yellows shocks --> allow you to adjust the ride comfort
the quality of your ride will decrease after u put aftermarket springs on, cause they are stiffer, then again u can put "Koni Yellows"
to calm down the bouncy ride after u go over a bmup
and jsut a thought, u might want to post this at "Suspension Performace" section [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] ....just a thought..

Rep Power: 0 I would agree, full coilover kit. H&R or B&G coils are great. No struts needed since thay have a built in strut. If not that, go Koni Yellow struts with Ground Control Coils. Springs are great with new struts but if you get caught by police you are not able to raise the car without the extra work. With coils you can raise and lower at will.
