There are tons of choices (as you are aware)... If you are looking to slam your car the Eibach Pros are definitely not the right springs.

Be aware that the Proline will still allow for in-spec alignment (right at the limit). The Sportlines will not. If you go that low, count on buying the camber adjusts too. Not worth it IMO. If you want the look to be "lower", I would go with a slightly larger tire OD to make up the difference. I scrape my testpipe to X-pipe couplings on some speedbumps already with my Prokit.

I am a little worried for your sake that your using shock's that are valved for much stiffer springs then what your going to run them with. 448/504 vs 324/260

Hey OCg35, did you use Dspec's with the prokits and are you scrubbing anywhere (like over speedbumps). Would anyone agree to use spacers (3/8th" i think other ppl are using) for the rears?
EDIT:nevermind i just saw that you were talking about oem shocks.
