I plan on replacing stock struts on my planned daily driver w/agx's. For springs looking at eibach prokits or sportlines. Kinda torn between the 2. Tell me if my reasoning is correct:

Pro-Kit: Pros - More balanced between performance and comfort. Shouldn't drop car enough to require camber adjustment or alignment. Cons - Not as good handling(?) Can't reduce the big fender gap I've got (see link in signature)

Sportlines:Pros - Big drop (could reduce the gap noticibly) Better handling(?)Cons - Rough ride

So now I've got 3 questions:

Does that sound about right?

How much of a drop can I expect with either spring?

What's the difference in performance and ride quality between the 2?

I know both work pretty well with the agx's but I'd like some opinions from those who've had actual experience with both... Thanks!

get the pro-kit unless your a fender gap freak, they'll handle the same, honestly....there isnt really enough of a difference between the windings on either of them other than a bit of stiffness(the sportlines).

also, the sportlines have the ability to blow shocks because of the drop, and will require a cam kit.

neither will ride terribly, either...its totally subjective to the "look" you want man...-chet
