I had some Eibach Sportlines installed on mine about a year and a half ago and didn't replace the shocks/struts when I had them installed. The ride quality is pretty good considering I've got 17" Enkies and 215/40/ZR17 tires which make you feel a lot of the action from the road. I highly recomend these springs, the also handle great, even without other mods.
I think springs are better than coil overs because everytime you change the height of your car, it changes the camber of your tires which makes them wear unevenly if you don't get it altered everytime also. That's just my opinion though. |
