Show car hell yes, daily driver, weekend road warrior no; check the spring rates on those. From what I hear over time your car might be sitting 3" or lower than stock. I have a brand new set of sportlines that I was going to install until the guys on LS1tech had so much bad to say about them I bought different springs. But damn after looking at your pic you do need some sort of a drop on that thing.

the sportlines would make the car look badass. On the other hand, it will ride like **** and you will scrape stuff underneath on speed bumps/driveways. If looks are what you're after, that would be the only reason for purchasing them.

Yeah man, those sportlines would look awesome but its just too damn low! I love my Eibach pro-kit springs but sometimes I still rack the bumpstops everynow and then. Don't get 'em..

Sportlines are an appearance mod only. Not only are they terribly uncomfortable, but also poorly designed for any type of handling need. No matter what shock you pair them with...they'll still be a downgrade. If you prefer to slow yourself down because you're handling worse, then this is the mod for you, otherwise, only consider them offer for a $50 "discount" and/or "rebate" towards better springs.
I mention this also from personal experience.
