I have the Eibach Pro Kit on my car. It's great. If you have the cash, go ahead and replace the shocks to save on labor later, or if you are doing it, to save you extra work later on. If you have any doubts as to whether their good or not, think about this:
Over 50% of formula 1 race cars use eibach springs.

I have the sportline series on mine and really like the way it handles.Mine isn't sitting too low because of the 17" wheels,so it doesn't scrape too much more than before.
