Eibach Pro-Kit or Sportline?

I am looking to drop my car soon and was wondering if anyone has the Sportlines on their car. Just wanna know the overall handling and ride quality of both. Most people on the board seem to have the pro kit so that is just what I may get...Any pictures of the difference in drop would be helpful as well. THanks

get Pro-kit... if you get sporlines you are asking for trouble ...

I personally think that Prokit is a perfect drop for the TSX ... for looks , handling , and ride Comfort ...

do a search and you can find more info on both springs...

i'd only get the sportlines if you are going to replace the stock shocks too. otherwise i would think that the ride will be very harsh. either way it is going to be stiffer, and that is the point of lowering it. but without upgrading the shocks, the stock ones are just not designed for that drop so they will perform poorly as a result. if you're not going to replace the shocks either get the pro kit or the comptech springs which are even less of a drop than the pro kit.

anyone got pics w/ the sportlines?

and before anyone says it.. i have searched numerous times, but i dont think anyone has them.

i like the drop of the pro-kit, but i'd rather drop it a little bit more. Since the stock shocks will be replaced, might as well drop it for a little bit more of an aggressive look.

i wanted to get a coilover system since the beginning, preferreably the GC coilovers with new shocks. But I heard that the coilovers take forever to adjust..

and by the way Christina Milian is
