purchasing springs tonight.. help!

Should i buy the eibach pro kit springs which provide a 1.3 inch drop.. or the eibach sportlines that provide a 1.7 inch drop.. if i do sportlines.. would i have to worry about camber.. or could i hold that off for awhile? and also would i have to worry about shocks immediately or can i put shocks off for a month? thank you for your immediate reply and your suggestion..

first of all, prokit = 1.5 or more depending on the shocks used...
Normally with this drop you would need a camber kit and you can use your stock shocks for about a month
*stiffer, more like stock suspension*

Sportlines = 2.0 or more depending on shocks as well...
I wouldnt trust riding on the stock shocks and you will need a camber kit for these springs
*more bouncy, but slammed look*

my car rides fine and i got sportlines/tokico...i mean im sure its a lil worse then prokit. But if you get prokit, your gonna be like damn i wish it was dropped a little more. Thats the reason for the sportlines. They will make ur wheels tuck and look sweet as hell. I'd go Eibach Sportlines all the way but its all up to u, what u want more semi drop conservative or be the man and go all the way down kinda like limbo "how low can you go?" even w/ sportlines i still wish i could be a drop lower.

on autocarparts.com the koni yellows are made for the 2.2... would i be safe purchasing the ones for the 2.2 even tho i own a 2.3? is there any difference?

Eibach pro kit is by far the best riding spring available for our car
