I got the eibachs. can return them. H&Rs lower the back less than front. I need to dial out some of my understeer. Springs are what I am doing next along with shocks. the bilstein sport monotubes will be here tuesday.
Here is what I have done so far, for perspective:

17x8 bbs on sumitomos 32psi rear, 34psi front
eibach sways front=soft, rear=stiff
have thought about finding a really stiff rear sway bar, as the eibach is only 21mm vs 28mm for front.

Found a genuine hairpin today on an empty road in the industrial district, and sure enough, still pushing a bit on exit.
