eibach springs

I wanted to know for the people who had experience w/the eibach springs, how much does these springs take away from the comforts of the ride? I really enjoy the softness and quite ride of the Acura CL but it does feel like a boat at times and I would like to lower it. But I really don't want to lose that ride comfort. Also, does eibach have different versions for the accord and the cl or are they the same?

Tein and Eibach springs will give you the best ride for an aftermarket spring

Mattastick, I did read the link and I realize it states that lowered cars will not have a stock ride. What I'm asking is how much of the comfort is taken away? Is it a good compromise between comfort and handling w/the pro-kit?
97 Black, the Teins you're recommending is the H series?

The prokit give you a great ride, but very little drop, the Tein H and S Techs give a better drop and also have a soft stock feel

remember how my eibach snapped? i've had two sets of those one in the CL and one in my 94 Accord 10yrs ago. wasn't happy either time.

i'll agree with teins and throw in H&R (in my 93 accord 4cyl) and the Suspension Techniques i have in the CL now are awesome, well they were i guess.

Did you attempt to take advantage of the Eibach's claimed one million mile warranty? I'm realizing that I should just keep it stock. Aftermarket springs doesn't sound like a sound option. Thanks all for the input.
