Eibach Decision

Whassup,

Need some help with my '01 LX Coupe. Should I go for the Pro-Kit or the Sportlines? I'm attracted to the lower drop of the Sportlines, but the higher price of the Pro-Kit suggests better quality. And yes, Eibach is my choice.

higher price? all places i've called around told me the same for both. and just because you pay more dont mean you get more. when it comes to suspension the quote imo 'you get what you pay for' dont apply.
if you have two cars, one with pro-kit, other with sportlines, your probably going to think the prokit are a better quality cause the ride is better... but just cause the ride is better doesnt mean the quality of the actual springs are better. i could go on n on listing why but i'm sure you dont want to hear it...
bottom line, if you HAVE to get eibachs, go with the sportlines. imo no one could even tell your car is lowered with the prokit and to me that is a waste of money... this one girl didn't even know my car on neuspeed sports(similar to sportline drop) was dropped untill i pointed out the fender gap.

a lot of people noticed my car had a more aggressive stance after i put on the pro-kit. i would've went with sportline, though. i don't think there's gonna be any difference in quality.

It really depends on what you're going for, if you want look more than comfort, go with sportlines......or viceversa go with the prokit........i had goldlines which is about the same drop as sportlines and it bottomed out all the time and now i've got a prokit which rides very nice. see pics of mine is your worried about height - Click Here

I've got the Pro kit and really enjoy them. Great ride.

Now I'm ready for the Sportlines because I like the look.
