It looks like it will be the Teins, progress or the H &R's. Anyone have any experience w/ the Tanabe's or RSR's??? thank you Mario:banana:

i got eibachs on my car. ride quality feels close to stock, but since i got 18x8, the back wheel rubbs when i take a turn too hard or on rough bumbs. the rear lowers perfect over the wheel but the front still has fender gap. i think the teins were a better choice because its 2 inch lowered in the front and it would have close the fender gap better.

I think the Eibach's front is 1.3, while the rear is 1.0

I read somewhere that the Tein springs tend to wear out quickly over time. Cheaper than the Eibachs though.
