Hmm... Pro kit or Sport?

Wellz, I am probably going to get my kyb agx shocks soon. Anyone have opinions on whether I should get the pro kit or the sport? I have 17's right now, but I may want to get 18's in the future, so I'm not sure if the pro kit will be enough drop. Anyone have the shocks with the sport springs? Howz the ride? If i do get the sport, will I eventually need a camber kit?
Or should I just screw eibach springs and get an entirely different brand........

Opinions are appreciated.....

if you go with sport springs you will definently need a camber kit or you will go through tires rather quickly. the sport spring drop looks really good a cl though. but the expense of the camber kits stoped me from getting them.

Well since you arent looking to use your stock shocks i would go with the sportlines. CLPower/Ghander (Scott) had them with 18's and the drop looked perfect. Best drop i have seen on the CL. Im pretty sure you will need a chamber kit but they arent too expensive, RMStoico said he could get you one for $85 i believe. Sportlines have my vote

If I had a 2.3 I'd get the sportsline for sure.

Rothman,
I'm a newbie, so I'll limit my opinion, but wanted to let you know--my last car was an Eagle Talon that I put GC coilovers and AGX's on. One suggestion--if you can't afford the dental work, spend a little more up front for better shocks--the AGX's will cause your teeth to get loose even on the softest setting, especially on Vancouver streets! Just an opinion, of course--I had heavy springs on the Talon for autocross, so it exaggerated the shock stiffness.
