how much do Eibach Pro Kit Springs change the ride of the car??

I am thinking about getting a set of KYB shocks/struts, and while I am at it, I was wondering about the springs. I wouldnt mind having the Eibach Pro Kit, but how do these spring affect the ride?? Are the stiffer, softer, the same?? I dont mind a little bit of roughness but I dont want to be bounced all over the place. I like the idea of about an 1.25 inches of lowering. But how are these shocks when compared to stock?? I do have WS6.. Thanks

They dropped my car an inch overall and leveled it out (used to have a bit of a rake). Since you already have a WS6, your ride won't seem to get much stiffer than if you were coming from a V6 setup.

I put the pro-kit on my 91'z-28. it dropped the car about a 1" all around. it feels like stock, untill you hit the turns, oh yea, the car hangs in the turns.worth all $240.

I put the pro kit on my 89, and it lowered the car an inch. The difference in handling is awesome, and in hard turning theres virtually no body roll. Even though the ride is a little stiffer , I'd recomend it.
