Eibach Springs with the Bilstien sport shock combination works well if you have the following: good, level streets, and no major curb height differences. This package is very jarring on bad freeways marked with potholes, etc. Driveways with major drops will cause the rear tire well(at the towing point hookup) to drag. But, when confronted with a curvy country road or track the combination is wonderful. The car is very level when cornering even with the stock sized tire/wheel combination. I would highly recommend strut bracing both front and rear to offset the stiffness and help with chasis flex.
