    Question Pro-Kit or Sportline

    Which Springs should I go for? Eibach Pro-kit or Sportline?
    I have a 2007 Spec V. Daily Driver.

    I want to reduce that wheel gap. Looks like a 4x4 right now.

    It will feel like you are riding on a cardboard box eitherway.. Don't say I didn't warn you.

    True. I guess I'm leaning towards Pro-kit.

    Get sportlines, i had pro-kits and it just wasnt low enough, i then bought sportlines and have been happy, the ride sucks with either set.

    only reason the ride sucks is because the stock struts are not meant for those spring rates. If you can get an adujstable damper system you can tune the roughness out.

    do they even make aftermarket struts for the B16 yet?... my EX has a B16 on sportlines and it looks hott as hell it has the perfect stance and the ride isnt bad @ all.. u feel a pretty decent rebound though on bumps but i guess its only been like a year or so that they been istalled so the struts prolly arent completely fucked yet lol.. but i havent seen any aftermarket struts for these.

    i just found this thread because i'm looking for some struts to go with my sportlines.

    they are a very very rough ride on stock struts. i deliver pizzas on ugly, hilly roads and i had to go back to stock because my struts were bottoming out.

    however

    on a smooth surface, the sportlines handle BEAUTIFULLY compared to stock. they cut roll down SIGNIFICANTLY. i'm hating the fact that i went back, but until i can get some struts that wont bottom out with these springs while i'm slangin pies, i'm going to have to take the smoother ride and less scrapage over superior handling and looks. pro kit wont get rid of the 4x4 look like sportlines will. the only thing they'll do is slightly reduce roll.
