Suspension

Ok, so my stock struts and shocks need to be replaced out.. I am looking at either the Eibach Pro Kit with the struts or either the tein ss coilovers.. I am a daily driver and do not race much, but am looking for that smooth ride that I had once I replaced the car. When I go over large bumps, the back end of the vehicle touches the body of the car. I basically need good shocks and struts that would allow me to have a smooth ride and need the back ones a little stiffer, so that my tires do not hit the vehicle. Any recommandations? If so, would I need any additional parts such as pillowball mounts or a camber kit? Not looking to lower more than an inch once I get them installed..

Oh yeah, and I go to the University of Illinois, so I do travel through hilly country roads and a lot of roads with minor potholes...

Did you get the ingalls camber kit or any pillowball mounts, or did you use everything stock except the B@G springs and struts? Also, when you say it rides stock, do you mean when you first got your car... Man I miss that smoothness...
