Bilstiens. The eibach springs lower the car a lot more than they claim too, so be carefull.

i think your thinking of the bilstien HDs they are for stock ride height.the slp bilstien were made for the firehawk and matched with a eibach spring that gave a 1" drop .the springs I have give a 1.5" drop

Not enough information on springs and such. And you don't know which KYB's he looking at either, so how can any of you make any recommendations? I can't, and I have a little experience in this....
