I have the Eibach Pro-kit and am trying to decide which hole to use for my relocation brackets. I know the best hole for traction is the bottom one, but I've also heard that the car will tend to slide around corners. How bad will my car handle the curves on the lower setting? How much straight line traction would I give up using the middle hole instead of the lower one? I really don't take the car on too many corners...just wondering?

I run mine on the bottom hole, stock ride height.
Being lowered you'll see a benefit from it.

 

If you don't get brake hop it's all good. If your back end
gets squirrely on hard braking then back off to the upper
hole.

I saw a Muttstang lift the rear tire in a panic braking
event (clown was tailgating folks in the other lane)
on I-95 and that action is something you don't want.

 

Do non-lowered and lowered cars have to worry about brake hop if they are on the lowest hole? Because my car is still stock height, yet i am running 18" rims with a 35 profile tire.

We'll I went with the lowest hole, and all is good. I don't get any brake hop and haven't noticed any negative side effects during cornering. The car feels smoother and sharper, and doesn't skip over bumps like it used to. Straight line traction is good, but was pretty good before I added the LCA's and PHB. Another bonus is the rear end doesn't move side to side like it used to under heavy throttle. Very happy with the mods .....now I have to fix my sticky clutch!

 

While were on the subject of relocation brackets.. can you temporarily bolt in the weld in brackets until they can actually get welded in?
