Help me make a decision on springs

Alright, im thinking about gettin Eibach Pro Kit springs for my car. The drop is 1.2" front and 1.0" rear. Do these springs work well with KYB AGX shocks which I will also be getting soon? Any body had any issues or problems with the Pro Kits on preludes? How do they compare to the H&R sport springs?

Thanks

go with the H&Rs. It is a little more of a drop and works wonders with the AGX struts. I had those struts and loved them. There are many here who run that setup and swear by it.

go with the h&r's if you want comfort, i had on prokit and sportline and they handle great but very bouncy. im currently running off h&r kyb with no problem. driving through bumps feels alot better than eibach, although they handle great on turns

Get Neuspeed. I have gotten them 3 times now. Two sport, and one racing, and I have about 5 friends that live near me that order them from adam at aieonline.com and they are awsome. He hooks preludeluders up!

The Neuspeeds are nice if you are after look and ride quality, but they were just too soft for my taste. I ended up switching mine out for a set of Skunk2 Adj. Coilovers and am much happier...Just give some thought to what you are after before you buy them...The other thing about the newspeeds, is it was about 1/2" shy of the drop that I wanted.

Thanks guys, I think Im going to go with the H&Rs Sports. I don't want to go any lower than that because of the roads here.

For those of you with the H&Rs and KYB AGX, do you have camber kits installed, if so, what kind?

Thanks

i got aerospeed 1.7 front 1.5 back on stock shocks and ebay camber kit. got brand new tires 7 months ago, and i havent rotated em yet. not worn out at all. i m suprised they still look like they came out of the box. the ebay camber kit does the job for me.

I've got H&R's and KYB's set at 2. VERY good ride quality. For this price you can't get a better setup.
H&R + KYB =

^ I've got them set at 2 also but the roads here suck ass so I'm getting hard bumps all the time .. BUT!

When your cruisin fast its incredible how much awesome turns feel in this car with the setup ... It is a sport performance setup, ride quality will decrease cosiderably.
