have all you guys ran both to have an actual comparison? cause i have noticed that everyone jumps on the bandwagon when it comes to buying new parts. i have had eibachs and had absolutely no problems with them, even with stock shocks that had over 150k. i haven't had any experience with dms, i hear good reviews about them, but no actual comparisons with other companies, everyone just wants to say dms cause its popular at the time well at least thats what it seems like to me. i am in the market for springs also and nothing anyone has said has been negative about either company.

I had Eibachs on my old F-body. I hated them. I can compare them to my DMS springs and will say that DMS is by far better! Many old Eibach owners will agree with me. I've researched tons on DMS springs before buying them and this was what I found out.

My Eibachs ended up sagging too much. The ride initially was OK, however it started to wear on me with all the jarring and rough riding. Over time, it seemed like the Eibachs just crapped out and the sagging got too much. I met up with a bunch of F-body owners during a meet and greet once, and several had DMS springs. They all raved on the ride and the stances looked great. I got to drive one for about 30 miles (part of the cruise) and loved it. After I got back into my car I noticed the big difference.
I since sold that F-body and now have another one. I went with the DMS springs (after much research) and absolutely love them. Like everywhere you read, everyone Loves their DMS springs. I'm more than happy with them and will never go back to the crap I used before...just merely my opinion

I haven't voted yet. I just got my Koni SA's and DMS springs installed a couple days ago so, the jury is still out. The front might be too low for my taste, gonna have to give it some time. Felt like the front bottomed out a little today as I was turning into the parking lot at my office. Or course, I was pushing the car a little harder than normal and the driveway entrance is kinda rough. But, having said that, the car has never bottomed out before and I've driven in the same driveway hundreds of times as hard or harder. The front fenders sit about an inch above the tires. And, I'm running 285/40's on 17" rims. I do like the way they look right now. The way the car sits it still has a rake to it.
I wasn't sure, at first, when I got the new wheel and tire combo on the car either. Stuck out a little further than stock. Once I got used to the change, I would never go back. So, I'm gonna give DMS a fair chance. If I decide they're not for me, I think I'll go with Hotchkis. Then, I'll have a new set of DMS springs for sale to one of you lucky bastards.

I had the pro-kit on my old 95' Z28 and my rears didn't sag. I liked the look and the ride wasn't bad.
I have DMS and Bilstein HD's on my current TA(pics can be seen in the appearance section) and it rides pretty good. I hardly ever scrap on anything, until I got my spohn TA. That damn crossmember sits way to low.
