    I just don't think they level the car out that well. I guess if you let them settle by parking it on a hill with the gas tank empty it will look good. Remember that mfr's rate is only for the 1st inch of compression and they're progressive springs. Got any info on the wire diameter and spring composition differences of the Eibach vs Tein?

    I'm more concerned of the ride comfort, i would like to maintain stock like ride comfort and just slightly increased handling. I know I could mix the s techs and the h techs like Jimvr4 did to level out the car.
