Hmm they lower it 1.75" front and rear, huh....anyone know the spring rates on these? How do they compare to the Eibach pro-kit for stiffness? I need to replace my stock springs and shocks/struts this season. I didn't want to go with more of a drop than the Pro-Kit offers, but at half the price, I'm not going to complain...as long as they are as stiff as the Prokit.

they are pretty stiff but most of the stiffness you can get is from some adjustable struts and shocks and thats were the price gets ya i think ebay was 220 for the kybs but i just got some sencatrak monroe struts and they are stiff enough but doesn't slam aginsat my bump stops.

would you recomend the monroe struts as good replacements , though stock?

i was thinking 50/50' struts up front, like monroe's and put 90/10 or 30/70 in rear.
