Get the Eibach Sportline Kit and later get the Koni Yellow's you will love it and you won't be dropping all that money at one time. Teins are good if you want the ability to adjust the ride height of your car. But you have to ask your self how often are you going to be raising and lowering your car. Eibach came out with this kit and it is the perfect ride height and it's way cheaper then the Tein Basics. Half the price. Granite if you go with the Eibach Springs you might have to replace your shocks it all depends on how you drive and the driving conditions. Think about it would a high end Suspension company like Eibach Make a Spring that jeopardizes your stock Shocks. Good question. I think NO. but everyone has there own opinions. Also if you do get a lowering kit GET NEW WHEELS/TIRES. yours look good for direct replacements but when you lower it you are going to have a lot of wheel well gap left w/ stock 17's. Thats just my opinion. Nothing Personal Andy.

No offence taken sweetheart! It's simple math= springs plus install 300+
Shocks go out 500+ install. At this piont you have spent over $150 more than I did
plus with coilovers your shock/springs are matched for performance. Eibach makes
a great product but most problems are with the install not the product itself. Companies spend millions in R&D so if you have problems it most likely the $10.50
hr tech not the product that you spent your hard earned money on. Plus who wouldn't want to have the adjustability for less money?????????

what?? that doesn't make sense. The neuspeed package is about $600. Tein basics are about $700 or more. How can he spend $150 more than you? On top of that, the neuspeed package is also matched for performance.

As well...people who live in the snow bealt might nto want a coilover because after 2 years, the salt and snow would have corroded the threads to do any height adjustment.

I was refering to doing springs and shocks not at the same time like most people
do. Your paying for install twice unless you pull a DIY. If others have run the neuspeed/koni combo and had sucess then by all means go for it. Just remember
you get what you pay for.

anyway I am pretty sure you can swap to sports people has done it before
you have to call in and talk to them......
so it's 600 + 150 install.....there you go
btw Koni Yellow is dampening adjustable....sure beats Tein basic
If you don't want to adjust height.....I'd suggest just get spring and shock combo

Remember the days when coilover weren't around and everyone bought matched sets of Koni/Bilstein/Tokico/KYB's with Eibach's/H&R/Neuspeeds?
Just because they are separate pieces doesn't me the spring wrate wasn't matched up witht he shock valving.
At least if you blew a shock you could always replace it easily.
